Munster Times: the Digital edition of Matt Ryan's Rock 'n' Roll fanzine!

Hello Rock fans! This is Matt 'Munster' Ryan coming at you from the world's number one venue-per-capita city in the world; Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, the third dimension (if you don't count time). More specifically, the epicentre of Melbourne's Rock scene, the legendary inner-city bayside suburb of St Kilda!!

Munster Times covers all things Rock and all things Footy, with a little philosophy and poetry thrown in but usually missing. Guest artists of world renown, or a volunteer with me in the pub when I said "I need a cover", usually do the the Munster Times covers.

A lot of people ask, "Is it true you were raised in Dingley?" As you know, the Dingley International Hotel has been the focus of a lot of media attention, an endless parade of celebrities and the occasional scandal. None of that has anything to do with me so I'd like to quash and squash those rumours. Kylie and I weren't really a thing and I only had Julian Assange in there for a few days. 

So please read, enjoy, ad tap into the collective wisdom of some of the greatest entertainers ever to walk onto a stage.

Sacred Cowboys

  One of the most seminal bands to come out of Melbourne’s underground scene of the 80s saddle up for another ride. 2024 sees Garry Gray and Mark Ferrie reunite, along with Anthony Paine Tim Dean and Damian Fitzgerald as the Sacred Cowboys. The Sacred Cowboys played there first gig in over a decade at Shotkickers back in October, and also sees the release of a new anthology, Cowboy Logic. Disc 1 starts at 1988, picking up where the previous collection, Nailed at the Cross ended. Disc 2 is a live compilation spanning 1994-2006, showcasing all the amazing talent that called themselves Cowboys. Garry Gray answered a few questions re the recent formation and new release. Munster: You have reformed the Sacred Cowboys, playing two shows already, one being a secret show, and have a CD anthology out now. Why was now the time to get the band back together? Garry: two things really, independent of each other. I had been looking at doing an anthology, not a best of. In an ideal world,...

King Brother

    From Nishinomiya   City, Japan, King Brothers return to Australian shores for the first time since 2016, this September. A mix of blues and outta control 90s garage, King Brothers are an example of a band that take two genres that already have deep roots, yet manager to make a sound that sounds original. With a reputation for loose and rowdy shows, it’s a must see gig for rock pigs.   Keizo (Lead Singer / Guitarist) spoke to us via email on the eve of there Oz tour.   Munster: Tell us about the New LP Hell OH Oz, that you’ve put out for the upcoming tour? How did you choose the tracks to put on it?   Keizo: The first King Brothers album was released in 1998 on an American indie label called 'BLUB' Records.From then until now, in 2024, we’ve been performing these 12 tracks live for years, and we’ve released them as a greeting to everyone in Australia. That’s why the title is a play on the greeting 'Hello! OZ.'   This album was creat...

The Schizophonics

Image
Combining elements of 60s garage, funk, soul and old time rock n roll showmanship, the Schizophonics are one of the hardest working bands you’ll see. And I mean that on stage. Singer/guitarist Pat Beers comes across like a mix between Jerry Lew Lewis and an eight year old kid on too much red cordial, the man never stops, while some singers take 5 to get a breath Pat keeps the party going with some amazing onstage moves that would score high in any Olympic gymnastics competition. While the bass often switches, Pat and Lety Beers are the core and soul of the group. The two of them, along with their beautiful dog Beanie, spoke to me via the zoom machine on the eve of their return to Oz Munster:   you guys are about to come down for your third Down Under tour, the first tour I saw you guys in a packed out room at the Tote, but the second tour was for many people there last gig before the pandemic. Lety: that was crazy. We started in New Zealand, then we went to Australia. Then we w...
