Purple Skies, Toxic River, my top album pick of 2013 just had its US release, so TV Colours concocted a film clip for The Neighbourhood to celebrate, featuring rapid snippets of Canberra’s suburban landscape. The track still holds up as a belter nearly two years on, driving with a ferocity that invokes shades of Jay Reatard and his flying-V. Give Purple Skies… a burl if you haven’t already. Give it another burl if you have.
