Cable Ties rock hard with a social conscience. See why this noisy Melbourne band is an Artist You Need to Know
The roots of the trio lie in the friendship between McKechnie and Boyle, who met at a music fest around 2012. The singer was playing in a punk band at the time called Shit Sex , and Boyle, who played in a noise-improv group, started going to Shit Sex’s shows. McKechnie suggested the two of them jam together in 2014, Boyle switched from bass to drums, and they recruited Brown, who’d known both of the women for years.
They released their debut single, “Same for Me,” that March, and shortly thereafter got the offer to open for the Kills. Cable Ties had originally drawn inspiration from Melbourne’s local punk and garage-rock scene but playing on bigger stages in rooms of more than 2,000 people gave them a new perspective.
So what did Ballance like about them so much? “They rage, but also express care and concern for vulnerable people.”than their debut. McKechnie sings about climate change and how it relates to aboriginal rights on “Anger’s Not Enough,” white male privilege on “Self-Made Man,” and how, in her words, “trying to perfect yourself by being the most performatively woke person that you can be by policing the language of other people … to gain power” is not especially healthy on “Sandcastles.
McKechnie sees the new album in contrast with their past work. “The last album, lyrically, was really a defiant punk album,” she says. “By the time we started writing [], I was coming from a place where I was feeling quite anxious and hard on myself. I was finding it quite difficult to find hope, which is a common theme on the [new] album. It was difficult to see any way out of the climate crisis and the things that were looming in our collective future.
