Goodness 03:20
I was breathing through a tight kinda muscle When a voice called out to me She said What are you doing out in this kinda weather You’ll catch a death why can’t you see You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me I was walking through a hot dry desert When a voice called out to me She said What are you doing, yeah you’re missing all the action on this elevated silver screen You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me I was looking through a broken glass window when a voice called out to me She said Why are you staring at a picture of a person that you’re finding so hard to see You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me You scared the goodness out of me

Powerlines 02:31
Never seen anything like it You forced something so hard until it breaks And we all make mistakes Back to where we started Blindingly whole hearted once again Certain once again Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Made a big decision To never let anyone make you feel again That happiness is sin I’m anything other than perfect Stuck in the middle of knowing what it takes And we all make mistakes Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will I’ll do it if you say you will Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines Powerlines

Call Me Up 03:34
You wake up Monday To the same old thing You’re losing grip but holding tight On a good day You’ll try to force a smile She’ll say you know it’s been a while How am I supposed to know what you’re thinking How am I supposed to know what you mean You should call me up You should call me up call me up What would my friends say Where should I place my trust You say I know you’ve had enough I’m missing my friends I’m so far from my home I think I’m better off alone How am I supposed to know what you’re thinking How am I supposed to know what you mean You should call me up You should call me up Call me up You should call me up You should call me up Call me up Call me up Call me up

You don’t want to hear it no more You don’t want to come to my door Bad company You tell me I’m bad company When did we get complicated What a mess that we’ve created Company You tell me I’m bad company I see the pattern arising I hear the lie that you’re hiding And I don’t think I could be much more Until you’ve finally found what you’re looking for I don’t think I can keep it to myself To live within, to live without When you don’t have to be around my Company You tell me you need more from me I see the pattern arising I hear the lie that you’re hiding And I don’t think I could be much more Until you’ve finally found what you’re looking for I don’t think I can keep it to myself Company You tell me I’m bad company Company You tell me I’m bad company Company You tell me I’m bad company Company You tell me I’m bad company

Falling Down 03:37
When you going, when you going to tell them Where you’ve been Where you’re going to see you Say it isn’t true This feeling’s never ending We wish you’d stop pretending now and work it out somehow Falling over you Falling leaves Trees are standing Comes in threes Bitter endings You only see Where you’ve landed Falling down over you When you going, when you going to tell them Where you’ve been Where you’re going to see you Say it isn’t true This feeling’s never ending I wish you’d stop pretending now And work it out somehow Falling over you Falling leaves Trees are standing Comes in threes Bitter endings You only see Where you’ve landed Falling down over you Falling leaves trees are standing comes in threes bitter endings Falling leaves trees are standing comes in threes bitter endings Falling leaves trees are standing comes in threes bitter endings Falling leaves trees are standing comes in threes bitter endings Falling down over Falling down over Falling down over Falling down over you

about

Perth power poppers Rinehearts, who comprise former members of Screwtop Detonators and Snowman, have today announced the October 13 release of their second album, ‘Full Bloom’, out through Cheersquad Records & Tapes in Australia and New Zealand.

The band has been lucky enough to work with none other than legendary musician/songwriter/producer Dom Mariani (The Stems/DM3/The Some Loves/ Datura4) on production duties for the new recordings. A longtime fan and fellow Perth resident, Mariani has described Rinehearts as "that rare band that you come across from time to time, doing their thing without a lot of fuss, but with true dedication and a knack for crafting perfect pop."

Working with their hometown pop hero - one who is also a major player in international power pop circles - is a dream come true for the band, and the resulting recording is beautifully realised with the perfect combination of gorgeous tones, fizzy energy and amazing tunes. And while there is a crystalline perfection to the recording - with every guitar and vocal hook exactly where it needs to be - there is a full-bodied depth to the sound as well, one that feels like flesh and blood and a heavy beating heart, making each and every track sound passionately alive.

Rinehearts have been powering out the pop since forming in 2016, with the band members’ pedigrees including two notable Perth bands. Benny Ward (guitar/vocals) and Mitch Long (bass) were formally members of high-energy rock ’n’ rollers Screwtop Detonators, who rode the rock wave in the mid-00s to international semi-prominence, recorded with legendary producer Charles Fisher (Radio Birdman, Hoodoo Gurus) at Trafalgar Studios in Sydney, won the attention of Marky Ramone and Deniz Tek, and were even the subject of an award-winning feature documentary, filmed over a ten-year period, called Meal Tickets.

Around the same time, drummer Ross Di Blasio was a member of Snowman, who released three acclaimed albums, toured with the likes of the Drones and Wolfmother, and eventually relocated to London before disbanding in 2011.

Benny, Mitch and Ross are long-time friends, and you can hear that in the music. There is a sweet friendliness to their sound, and a sense of easy fun. The group’s tunes received international attention from the get-go when UK label No Front Teeth Records released their first record, the 7” EP ‘Try Your Luck,’ within months of the band forming. The living room-recorded debut album ‘Can’t Do Nothing’ followed on Cheersquad in 2019, and the band added an east coast contingent to its ever-expanding but west-centered fan base.
The band has recently been joined by forth member, Aidan Gordon. Aidan is an incredible guitarist and fits the band like a glove. His resume includes The Autumn Isles, The Mackerels, The Reductors, Tenderhooks, 6s and 7s, just to name a few.

While working with Dom on Full Bloom, Rinehearts guitarist/singer songwriter Benny has been releasing a succession of solo singles (under the name Benny J. Ward) in a similar, albeit a tad more garagey, style. The latest single and self-made video "I Didn't Mean It" was released July 28 and there are more to come! Benny also recently released an EP from another longtime project, the hardcore punk outfit LEECHES!

Rinehearts are one of the latest in a long line of Perth pop/power pop bands that goes back to the late 70s, when the Manikins and the Scientists wore their Flamin’ Groovies fandom on their sleeves. You might wanna add the Triffids to the list – they released their first single on a label called Shake Some Action after all. The 80s brought the prolific Summer Suns and the Stems along with at least two more plant-based popsters, the Bamboos and the Marigolds. And of course, those other, previously mentioned pure power pop projects from Dom Mariani, who is of course the patron saint of Perth Power pop, and who has now personally anointed Rinehearts as his natural successors.
