Here There Everywhere- The Aviators Review
Hey GRINDers, Tony here to give you our first ever music review for the grass routes music exchange!
This month’s CD is from our good friends ‘The Aviators’ from their new EP ‘Here, There, Everywhere’. I found this album to be quite interesting because it hits me as a very Territory type of album and I can’t figure out why. The lead vocals lovingly given by GRIND’s own Shana Stringer weave through the listener and are a refreshing breath of air in the Territory scene, where most rock bands have male vocalists. The simple cord structures of the music complement Shana’s vocals extremely well for the shear fact that they both give the listener the feel that they can easily pick up the music and play it straight off the gun. As one would believe there is always the simplicity of the bass to complement the guitar. With a quick drum beat that keeps the listener from getting annoyed with everything being so simple and thinking that they aren’t good at what they do, the fact is quite the reverse, they are better then some bands that I have heard around Darwin, they love their music and put a lot of emotion into their music which gives them a extremely powerful feel to the music.
There was only one downer that I found about this CD; that’s the fact that it sounds like it was recorded in a bathroom. This is not their fault it only highlights the need for a good recording studio in Darwin that is cheap and affordable.
4.5 stars for The Aviators for doing a good job on their CD.
Give them a listen and see what you think.

Cool review. I agree our recording is a bit amature, Jess and I love reverb…That’s what makes it sound like we are jamming in a bathroom.
The reverb is a bit OTT, But hopefully someday we can re-record our music
