SFK never got the recognition they deserved. One of the best and hardest working bands Australia has ever produced! My music collection would not be complete without this band, they have been instrumental in the last 20 years of my life.
I think the reason SFK is so good these days is because of the maturities in their songwriting and yet they keep the basics that helped them so much. Those harmonies between Dempsey and Ashworth are still there and that adds depth to the song. Then there are the subtleties such as that extra reverb on the snare drum and the crash that add a full feeling. They’ve lost the post-rock sound and have really grown musically.
Today, 21st of December is Winter Solstice here in the Northern Hemisphere. I currently live in Berlin, and went for a walk to Checkpoint Charlie this morning to listen to this beautiful song. As someone who grew up in Melbourne and saw SFK countless times, I wanted to do something special to celebrate this very special band
Something for Kate, I have been listening to you for 20 years. You never fail to make me smile. Stephanie, I used to spend time with your brother. He is just as beautiful as you xxx
So good to have Something for Kate back!! Absolutely love this song....takes me right back to Echolalia and The Official Fiction. I also love that they've filmed it in my favourite Melbourne venue (the Palais Theatre) at a time where no concerts can take place there.
Man, I just love them, too much. Please keep on making excellent music, and giving us hope that the so called "good music" still has a place on this twisted, deformed world of noise and no melodies...
I declare this song an instant classic. Just bought it today. listened to the album on repeat from Nowra to Sydney, after a funeral. I am a bloody mess, but there's power and love in this music.
What a rad song...remember when Paul performed this at the Gaso last year. felt like you already knew it. Instant Classic! Hi guys, looking forward to the new tunes!
I love this song so much. Have been playing it every day and have ordered every different iteration of the new album on LP and CD. Keeping this little part of Melbourne sane during such a challenging and testing time. Much love and support to the three of you and eternal gratitude for adding to the soundtrack of my life. ❤️📷🎙🦈🎱🔬🦇
2020 has been weird... but one of the weirdest things about 2020 is that this video hasn't had a gazillion more views. Come on internet! Get behind great Aussie music! Most stuff out there is a waste of breath compared to this!
18 When the Great Tao (Way or Method) ceased to be observed, benevolence and righteousness came into vogue. (Then) appeared wisdom and shrewdness, and there ensued great hypocrisy. When harmony no longer prevailed throughout the six kinships, filial sons found their manifestation; when the states and clans fell into disorder, loyal ministers appeared.
63 (It is the way of the Tao) to act without (thinking of) acting; to conduct affairs without (feeling the) trouble of them; to taste without discerning any flavour; to consider what is small as great, and a few as many; and to recompense injury with kindness. (The master of it) anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things. He who lightly promises is sure to keep but little faith; he who is continually thinking things easy is sure to find them difficult. Therefore the sage sees difficulty even in what seems easy, and so never has any difficulties.

Please don't ever stop making music for us !!!!!
An absolute belter of a song. That bass line is so juicy. Love everything about it.
You guys are great! I don't think you've ever received the attention you deserve but you're still well loved. One of the best Australian bands ever.

Amazing tune, after all these years they still create gems
What an absolute banger. The biggest and most emotive song I've heard out of the home country in some time.
I cannot wait for the album! I’ve really loved both of the songs released so far
Tremendous!! My favourite band. Just put all their albums on repeat 👍🥳
Would love to hear a acoustic version as well Paul
Man, I just love them, too much. Please keep on making excellent music, and giving us hope that the so called "good music" still has a place on this twisted, deformed world of noise and no melodies...
This is shaping up to be my favourite album since Beautiful Sharks.

SFK are a national treasure.
Absolute breath of fresh air in the scene. So good to see SFK back.
Simply incredible. The song writing and atmospherics just carry one away. SFK are still raw and powerful. Beautiful!!!!!

Is it just me or is this about Winston and Julia?
Totally.
