Ever since they released their debut single back in 2019, Queensland alt-rockers Cardboard Cutouts have been determined to keep themselves moving. 

Whether it's trying new things on the writing or recording front, or simply looking towards myriad artists for inspiration, it's easy to see they're a group who aren't happy to stay in one lane.

Indeed, these past few years have seen the group slowly grow and evolve with each and every release, with EPs such as 'Weekends' and 'Patchwork' now giving way to their debut album, 'Politics & Footy Tips.'

An impressive piece of work for the group, it's a record built upon combined decades of musical appreciation, and clearly focused on the shuffle feature. With each and every track feeling like its own little world, so too does the music ebb and flow, showcasing their varying musical approaches and their associated talent.

What I'm trying to say is that it's a corker of a record that's worth your time.

This week, Eliot Argus of Cardboard Cutouts was kind enough to join me for a far-reaching chat where we discussed everything from rockabilly bands to Norwegian black metal (though the latter one might have been me).

Anyway, have a listen to Cardboard Cutouts' 'Politics & Footy Tips,' buy a ticket to their tour, have a listen to our chat, and I’ll see you at the end of the episode for some general housekeeping.
