- Feelin Kinda Free is the sixth studio album from Australian band The Drones, and their final one before going on hiatus. Having grown tired with the more rock-oriented sound of the band up until that point, frontman Gareth Liddiard became fascinated with both vintage and modern electronic equipment - ranging from drum machines and samplers to the Teenage Engineering OP-1 synthesizer - in conceiving the album's sound. Its genre-defying musical style has been described as visceral and ominous, featuring a relative absence of guitars and a prominent use of electronic textures. Its sessions also marked the first appearance of drummer Christian Strybosch since 2005's Wait Long by the River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By. Their shortest at just over 40 minutes, Feelin Kinda Free received fairly positive reviews for its eclectic sound and Liddiard's darker, more politically-charged lyricism. It also charted at #12 on the ARIA Charts - the band's highest till date. The album went on to appear on numerous year-end lists and would later be chosen by Junkee as one of the best Australian albums of the decade. (en)

- "Rock music's been done to death, [...] It's not about using your imagination any more, it's about copying Siouxsie & the Banshees and Joy Division and fitting into that box. The music industry's broke and they only do things that fit into a pigeonhole. A kid starts a band and asks themselves what era they need to rip off. It's just a form of taxidermy." (en)
