PERTH DATE ADDED TO
THE CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR

Setlist announced for this week’s WA shows

GYROSCOPE have set the wheels in motion for what looks set to be one of their most exciting touring adventures ever. The great idea behind the now looming CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR is that Gyroscope’s much-loved fans dictate the songs performed live via a public vote. Now, the setlist for this weeks WA dates has been announced along a highly demanded hometown Perth show.

GYROSCOPEfans are equal parts dedicated and zealous in their hometown Perth, so it is with great excitement that the band announce the final stop on the Choose Your Own Adventure Tour will be an intimate one at the Rosemount Hotel. Fans can ring in the silly season with the Gyros on Friday December 02. There will be the special fan-chosen setlist and the local stalwarts no doubt be at their very best after a 5 month break throughout the middle of the year and a triumphant return to the stage.

Joining Gyros on this special show is a host of local Perth talent in ARTS MARTIAL and I, SAID THE SPARROW. Both acts have been making waves both in WA and beyond this year, and we hear their live shows take a leaf out of Gyroscope’s own balls out, thrill a minute rock show. The first slice of Arts Martial’s debut album (single Running) has been garnering triple j love, while I, Said the Sparrow have been venturing outside of WA this year, sharing stages with great acts like Trial Kennedy, Wolves and The Mission in Motion. A nice solid bill to give Perth fans a most memorable set of performances, start to finish.

While the setlist for this month’s WA dates have been announced (see list below) fans eager to ensure their favourite fresh or vintage Gyroscope tracks get a live airing can still vote for all east coast dates and the Perth show at Gyroscope’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/gyroscopemusic) Voting closes early November, so get your Gyroscope records out, re-learn the words and get voting here.

THE CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR 

Supports Closure in Moscow, City Riots & Wolves announced
The vote for setlist selection commences…

GYROSCOPE have sent fans into a tail-spin over the past month, announcing surprise tour dates for October and November and revealing on announcement a novel concept to ensure these are once-in-a-lifetime performances. The CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR is Gyroscope’s one and only headline tour for the whole of 2011 and it’s all about giving the stalwart fans something special in return for years of dedication. You got it; this time around the fans dictate the setlist for all shows via a special public vote.

Indeed, the great song vote for the Choose Your Own Adventure Tour is already in full swing. The song poll is causing a riot amongst excited fans determined to have their favourite tunes get a rare live airing. If you’re not already a fan of Gyroscope on Facebook, visit www.facebook.com/gyroscopemusic, click the “questions” tab in the left-hand column and cast your vote. This is critical stuff; have your voice heard now as well as at the shows, screaming along the words to every song.

Now to announce the steadfast support acts for the Choose Your Own Adventure Tour. Holding Gyroscope’s back as main support at home in WA will be impressive newcomers WOLVES, who've recently sharpened their teeth on a huge national tour with Dead Letter Circus, and have some tasty triple j play between their claws. Equally exciting news is that main support duties on the east coast adventure will be taken up by impressive rock peddlers CLOSURE IN MOSCOW, who have taken a leaf out of Gyroscope’s book when it comes to fever-inducing live shows. The quartet have returned triumphant from their US jaunts and busied themselves recording in Melbourne. Expect big things from their notoriously entrancing performances. Last but by absolutely no means least, Adelaide’s own bombastic rock upstarts CITY RIOTS will warm the stage on all east coast shows, fresh of several national tours and ready to give fans a sneak peek at their brand new EP.

With votes now rolling in, the response to the CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR has already been ecstatic; the Geraldton date is already SOLD OUT and licensed ALL AGES shows for Adelaide and Sydney are selling fast. Tickets for all shows are on sale now, and with the promise of some truly diverse setlists, all dates are likely to be a sell-out before the weather begins to turn. The adventure really and truly starts right now.

Welcome to the July news from Gyroscope

Hail loyal Gyro-fiends! It has been a while since our last news update so we thought we would drop you a line to tell you what has been happening in the land of Gyroscope. As it turns out, the boys are having a well deserved break but are no doubt beginning to itch for some time on-stage doing what they do best.

Two of the boys have been doing a spot of traveling in their time off, while others have been enjoying some well deserved home time since wrapping up their last tour on the national Groovin' the Moo Festival in April & May. If you are eager to see the Gyros hit the stage once more, why not drop them a line on their Facebook page? As if you needed reminding it is over at www.facebook.com/gyroscopemusic.

Meanwhile, Dan & Zok lined up last month to play a special acoustic set at the Boomers vs. China basketball match at Perth's Challenge Stadium. They played a tasty short little set that included Baby, I'm Gettin' Better, Fifty500 and more.

If you're needing some Gyroscope footage to help get you through this rest period for the fellas, then we suggest that you get a little nostalgic with this live video of Doctor, Doctor from way back in 2004 at Sydney's The Annandale. Click here to watch. Nice!

And finally, sometimes there is nothing more comforting that veging down in your favourite band tee (or bandanna, or keyring, or hoodie, whatever!) so we suggest that you check out the Official Gyroscope Merch Store over at Fist2Face. There are some juicy bargains at present.

That's all for you. Stay tuned as we'll be bringing you some exciting news Gyro-wise in the coming months.

Love,
Gyro HQ xx

Gyroscope March News

2011-03-16T21:43:00.001-07:00

Welcome to the March news from

Welcome to the month of March friends of Gyroscope. 2011 is slipping away slowly already, so let's get right into the good stuff....

Gyroscope took off to the east coast last month for some very massive and sweaty headline shows in Frankston and Ferntree Gully. These were Gyroscope's last headline shows in the Melbourne area for some time, so we hope you got your fix if you managed to make it along! Heck, one lucky lady was even proposed to during the Ferntree Gully show, so they must have been inspiring shows! Congratulations to the lucky couple from all at Gyro HQ.

Next up, Gyro's took off to sunny Launceston for their long awaited MS Fest performance. Hitting the stage amongst some of Australia's very finest live acts, Gyroscope really held their own (in fact, we heard they were the highlight of the day) Check out some of the action in the MS Fest highlights video at www.msfest.com.au

Now Adelaide, it's your turn next! The Gyro juggernaut is coming your way tomorrow night, with the band poised for a loud and rockin' set at the annual Clipsal 500 after race concert. Rounding out this stunning bill is Birds of Tokyo, Children Collide, Dead Letter Circus and The Killjoys. Killer line-up, be sure to check it all out at: www.clipsal500.com.au

Well, in some exciting news that is not related to touring (sometimes we get carried away and think there is nothing else!) the very talented lads from Gyroscope have been included in the shortlist for the International Songwriting Competition! Yep; Baby, I'm Gettin' Better is up for selection in the ROCK category (of course). Have a look at all the shortlisted artists, many of whom are Australian, right here.

Continuing with the non-touring theme (although this is Big Day Out related...) we thought we would draw your attention to this swell catch up that Brad & Rob had with MTV while on the Big Day Out tour back in January. Rob gets very excited about tour mates Remmstein. Catch this one right here.

Coming up really soon now is the Groovin' the Moo festival tour. These shows are all selling fast so if you're planning to catch the wonderful Gyros on these dates get in quick to secure your spot, And there we go, harping on about touring again...it's all just so exciting all of the time, we can't help it.

That is all for now.
Take care!

Gyroscope February News

2011-02-23T17:52:00.000-08:00

Welcome to the February news

Greetings Gyro-fanatics. Welcome to the February news, there is a lot to get in here so let's get right into it...

Tonight Gyroscope will be making quite the racket at Melbourne's Ferntree Gully Hotel, joined by local livewires Fangs. Tomorrow night the four Gyros will be exploding onto stage at Frankston's Pier Live, heading up a similarly tasty bill. There will be some tickets at the door for both of these shows, so if you're in the area (or can get to the area!) be sure to get yourselves down to these shows nice and early. They are likely to be Gyroscope's last Melbourne shows for quite some time, we know that you will miss them.

Gyroscope have already been very busy ripping up stages, and we are not even a third of the way through 2011. Who managed to catch Gyros destroying the Essential Stage at any of the 2011 Big Days Out? This was the guys second trip out with the touring circus and they might have even been better this year than last time around. Crowds were sweaty but undeniably huge and the band pulled out a brilliant mixture of older favourites and newer hits, sending people into a Gyro-tinged friendly. Everybody had a lot of fun.

Amongst Gyroscope's busy Big Day Out schedule were a few interviews. You can see for yourself first hand how everything went down at the Big Day Out, including Brad and Rob discussing meal tickets and inter-band snobbery with Hit List TV. There are also some swell photos over at the Nova website. Big Day Out Gyro-mania - enjoy!

Something else that happened while Gyroscope were gallivanting around with the Big Day Out was triple j's Hottest 100. And what a big list it was this year. Biased as we are we think it would not have been quite so big without the inclusion of Baby, I'm Gettin' Better, which landed at a very awesome #40. Thanks for all the votes folks, check out the full list here. Gyroscope also scored two more songs in the list 100-200, check out all of the songs that ALMOST made it here.

It seems that the mob responsible for the impressive 2011 Groovin' the Moo line-up agree that Gyroscope are on a bit of a roll; the band will be playing every date on the tour! This means that Gyroscope are headed to some regional locations they have not had an opportunity to impress for quite some time. The band will take off to Bendigo, Townsville, Maitland, Canberra and Bunbury. We hear Bendigo has already sold out, so if you are keen to get along to another of the dates be quick and head over to: www.gtm.net.au.

So, thought we might leave you with a bit of an oldie but a goodie this month. The blooper reel from Gyroscope's What Do I Know About Pain video is pretty priceless, and if you haven't managed to watch is yet it's definitely worth a few minutes. As is the rest of the Gyroscope Youtube page really, check it all out at: www.youtube.com/gyroscope. Some great video from throughout the years there, you can have a Gyro nostalgia trip.

Until next time.

Love,
Gyro HQ xx

Welcome to the January news from

Welcome to a brand new year Gyro-friends! We are well aware it is the last day of January, but we were holding out to bring you some exciting news direct from the 2011 Big Day Out tour. Well, as is to be expected - Gyroscope have been absolutely slaying crowds! Their set is one big loud rockin' mixture of cuts from all four of the bands' albums, plus a sneaky little Nirvana cover (but we're not going to tell you which one) Thus far the Gyros have knocked over the Gold Coast, Sydney & Melbourne dates. Check out some awesome live photos on Fasterlouder right here. Look out Adelaide and Perth, the Gyroscope juggernaut will be careering your way later this week.

Also, the Gyros have brought some killer new merch designs on the road with the Big Day Out, so be sure to stop by the merch stand in Adelaide and Perth to check them out. Leftovers will be hitting the Gyroscope webstore in the coming months.

Way back in December Gyroscope helped to pump people up for their outrageous New Year’s Eve, taking to the stage at Victoria’s Pyramid Rock Festival. We hear they tore the stage apart, Rob even snapped this wild photo on his phone from behind the drum kit:

In other news, Zok has gone and scored himself his very own custom guitar! The friendly blokes over at Cole Clark put together a very swell looking instrument completely to Zok’s specs, sweet! Here is a picture to drool over. He has even been bringing it out on the Big Day Out.

Don’t forget – for those unlucky Victorians who missed out on Big Day Out tickets there are two big headline Gyroscope shows coming up in Frankston and Ferntree Gully. February cannot come soon enough, and tickets are on sale now. Be sure to check the dates and secure your tickets here: http://gyroscope.oztix.com.au/

Well, this has been brief, but there is a whole swag of exciting announcements to be made in the coming weeks.The next issue will recap on all of the Big Day Out action, along with shedding some more light in what Gyroscope will be up to as 2011 swings into gear.

Love,

Gyroscope December News

2010-12-01T18:02:00.001-08:00

Welcome to the December News from

Yes, this is the final 2010 news update from Gyroscope, and what a colossal year this has been for the band! Not only did the bands rockin' fourth album Cohesion debut at a massive #3 on the ARIA charts, their stupidly catchy Baby, I'm Gettin' Better single has gone gold and beyond. Many thanks to all of you dedicated Gyro-nerds who have supported the band through one more incredible year.

Something that Gyroscope have also delivered on this year is the huge shows they have been pulling out all over the country. They have been keeping the good times coming this past month, including a massive JD Set performance at WA's stunning Rottnest Island last weekend. With headlining duties being filled by The Living End, the Gyro's put on a great show right by the seaside. We hear Dan even scarpered off into the sea mid set for some very wet riffage, sweet! We don't have photos of that just yet but there are a few to be checked out here.

Moving on - Gyroscope have announced a great big Christmas show at Studio 146 in Albany, WA. on December 26th (supported by Homebrewe) They have also let it be known that the Gyro machine will be headlining some great shows in Victoria come February (supported by locals Fangs) Tickets for both shows are on sale right now, so snap yours up and get excited right here: www.oztix.com.au / 1300 762 545

Of course, there are plenty of other opportunities to see the Gyros do their thing as summer well and truly sets in. The last time Gyroscope fronted up to perform at the Pyramid Rock Festival a couple of years back they were buffeted with heavy rain and strong winds, but the weather did little to dampen the bands energetic live show, this time around things can only get better and more exciting! And of course there is the annual travelling circus that is the awesome Big Day Out tour. Things just keep moving ahead for Gyroscope, and we hope you manage to catch up with them over summer!

Now, to round out this end of year message - bargains! Our friends at Fist 2 Face are running a Gyroscope Official Merch Store Christmas sale! It kicks off in the coming week or so and there will be some great Gyro bargains going, so be sure to check it out at: www.fist2face.com.au/?gyroscope. Alternatively, if you wish to give the gift of Gyroscope to a loved one this holiday season, we strongly recommend you get them onto Cohesion at iTunes. With a bonus track and customer reviews like "Gyroscope = EXTREME AWESOME" and "Sounds like the orgasm of a million angels" how could you possibly go wrong?

Well, that's all for this year of 2010. Bucketloads of fun and interesting Gyro related things coming your way as soon as the new year takes hold.

Much love!

Gyroscope November News

2010-11-11T17:35:00.000-08:00

Welcome to the November News

Alright Gyro-fiends, we have some great and exciting things to present to you this time around. The Gyro's have been busy as usual, and we have been following in their wake collecting all kinds of exciting content. But first things first - the Baby I'm Gettin' Better single has gone GOLD! We would like to extend our fondest thanks to all of you who have gotten behind both the single and the Cohesion album. Great work everybody!

Firstly, most locals must be aware by now that the Gyros brought their famous live show to the fore at Perth's Aberdeen St Oktoberfest last month. Seems like things got a little rowdy as the band documented their day via photos on Twitter & Facebook. Check out what a show day is like for the band by taking a squizz at www.twitter.com/gyroscopemusic.More photos from that show here.

Western Australia sure is being spoilt Gyro-wise of late, with yet another mammoth announcement made - Gyroscope will be joining the mighty The Living End and one lucky winning band in the final JD Set performance of the year. As if this is not good news enough, it's all taking place in the stunning surrounds of Rottnest Island. Tickets are limited (and cheap!) and the promoters are offering discounted ferry ticket options. All the details for that one here: www.thejdset.com.au

The rest of Australia, however, is hardly being neglected. Two particularly mouth watering Victorian shows have just been announced. Gyroscope will hit Ferntree Gully Hotel on February 24th and Frankston's Pier Live on February 25th - these shows may be a ways away but don't be fooled, tickets are on sale already. Local upstarts Fangs will be holed up as support and they are so snap up tickets at Oztix: www.oztix.com.au / 1300 762 545.

Amongst the myriad of other opportunities to see the Gyroscope live show there is the Pyramid Rock Festival, Tasmania's MS Fest and of course, the 2011 Big Day Out Tour. All dates below - don't miss the Gyroscope live wagon this summer.

In non-touring news for a moment, Rob took time out last week to step into the shoes of a radio host. He stepped up to the microphone on Nova Perth's breakfast show, and by the looks of these photos he had a damn fine time doing it.

We think Gyroscope have produced some great videos to accompany the singles from Cohesion - and we hope you agree. This Saturday voting will begin for the annual RAGE Top 50 - allowing you to vote to your little hearts content for Gyroscope! You know you want to, right here: www.abc.net.au/rage/

On the subject of videos, we'll leave you with something to giggle at this time around. Check out the various bloopers and awkward moments captured behind the scenes of Gyroscope's What Do I Know About Pain video. We think that kind of cold would make anybody a little delirious, check out the action here.

More Gyro news coming your way next month as always.
Love,
Gyro HQ xx

Gyroscope October News

2010-10-03T18:15:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the October News from

Well, it's pretty hot over in Perth right now, but it doesn't appear to be slowing the Gyroscope juggernaut down in the slightest. There has been such great news coming through in the past couple of weeks that things won't be cooling down for quite some time.

Firstly, in perhaps the most exciting news announced in some time; Gyroscope will proudly join the travelling circus that will be the BIG DAY OUT 2011! Capping off a big summer, Gyroscope will be playing alongside the likes of such musical luminaries as Tool, Rammstein, Iggy and the Stooges, MIA and of course some of Australia's finest talent like Wolfmother, Birds of Tokyo and Angus & Julia Stone. Tickets on sale on different days this year, so hit www.bigdayout.com to make sure you have all the info to see Gyroscope hit the Big Day Out stage for the second time.

Of course there are still plenty of opportunities to see the famed Gyro live show in the lead-up to the Big Day Out. Following a sweltering show upin Broome this past weekend, the band will be raising the roof at a home-town Perth show later this month. Gyroscope will be getting festive at the Aberdeen St Oktoberfest celebrations on October 24th, check out all info here. For fans on the east coast there is the annual Pyramid Rock Festival getting loud over New Years, all info for that one here (another excellent line-up there!) It's been some time since the Gyroscope machine has ventured south to Tasmania, but Launceston's MS Fest will be bringing them to those parts in February. All details for that to be found here. Wow, a whole load of touring news for you this time around!

Next up? Well, we know that Gyroscope fans are famed for their very loyal support of the band, and this is a call out for more of it! Gyroscope have made the Top 50 cut in the 2010 Channel [V] Oz Artist Competition, and they cannot proceed without your votes. Show your support by voting here, and tune into Channel [V] on October 16th to see whether they hit the Top 4. Fingers crossed.

We mentioned this in the last installment of the Gyro news, but we are just so happy with this that we're plugging it again. It's the What Do I Know About Pain? video, and it's tense, striking and exciting. If you have yet to check it out or feel the need to do so again then you can do that right here.

And to round out this relatively brief but news-packed October mailer; a photo of Dan playing whilst standing on a brand new car. Gyroscope played a special winners party last month in Sydney and Nova managed to snap some pretty awesome photos. Check it out.

Okay, that's all until next month. Stay safe.
Love,
Gyro HQ xx

Gyroscope September News

2010-09-10T00:51:00.001-07:00

Well, August certainly was a busy and exciting portion of the year for our dear Gyroscope, and as such we have a news update teeeming with developments and interesting bits and pieces for you to cast your eyes and ears upon. Ready? Go.

Something that has accompanied Cohesion in a very, uh, Cohesive manner is the stunning video clips that have graced both television and computer screens the country over. First, the stark hot beauty of the West Australian desert for Some of the Places I Know. Then there was the equally amusing and eye boggling stop motion adventure that was Baby, I'm Gettin' Better. Now we think you will truly delighted with the tense, snowy momentum of the What Do I Know About Pain video.

We don't want to ruin it for you, so will just have to make sure you check out Video Hits tomorrow morning, who will be premiering the video alongside an interview with the boys. If you want to satisfy at least some of your curiosity right now, there are some swell behind the scenes photos to be seen at Fasterlouder.

Now, if the thought of how painstaking the stop-motion Baby, I'm Gettin' Better video must have been to put together (shot in 14 locations over two days and comprised of over 2,500 still images) then you should tell people you're impressed! The fine folks at Deepend have been nominated for an IF Award for the video, and you can support them by clicking here and voting for it. We sure did.

Well, from videos onto shows now. Gyroscope are poised to bring some of their brashest, noisiest antics to the Hunter Valley for the Funk n Grooves Festival this weekend. Rounding out the bill will some of the countries finest such as Spiderbait, British India, Urthboy, Bertie Black and more. Some tickets still available via www.funkngrooves.com.au so hop to it!

Then it's sights back to home state Western Australia for a period. Gyro's will be headed all the way up to stunning Broome to tear apart The Roey on October 1st followed by what will be a very merry Oktoberfest celebration in Aberdeen Street (tickets for that one via www.eatingwa.com.au)

Festival news just keeps on rolling out as the summer begins to poke it's head over the horizon. With it comes the very fantastic news that Gyroscope will be packing up and heading over to Victoria for the annual Pyramid Rock Festival. This is one truly bumper line-up including NERD, Chromeo, The Temper Trap, Arrested Development and ute load more. Tickets on sale 9.00am next Tuesday September 14th, and with the rate festivals have been selling of late we suggest you get in quick!

We will leave you with the great news that Daniel & Zok dropped by trusty triple j a couple of weeks back to perform a Like A Version with Tom and Alex. Not only did the boys perform an acoustic version of Baby, I'm Gettin' Better, they busted out a beautiful cover of Bob Marley's classic Redemption Song. But watch this killer video for yourself at the triple j website.

And lastly, did we mention that some of the merch designs from the Cohesion Tour are now for sale at the Gyroscope Official Merch Store? Well, they are, so if you missed out at the shows you can peruse the merchandise right here: www.fist2face.com.au/?gyroscope.

That's it for now. All things Gyro sure are going to heat up with the weather. So plenty more to come soon.

Take care,

2010-07-12T18:54:00.001-07:00

Welcome to the July News from Gyroscope!

So many things to report this time around Gyrofiends! Tours, singles, videos, photos and a whole swath of Gyroscope goodness to help you claw through winter (or summer, wherever this finds you)

Firstly let us extend our thanks to all the fantastic crowds that well and truly turned it out for Gyroscope's huge Cohesion Tour. By all reports the shows were a mess of sweaty, singing bodies and a truly rockin' time was had by band and fans alike. With some solid backing from supports The Vasco Era and After the Fall, we hope it was well worth to wait to see the Gyro's pull out all the stops (and even some never before heard live album tracks!) Here are some links to photos & reviews.

For anybody who missed out on Cohesion Tour merch in the thick of it, there will be some items from the tour available at the Official Gyroscope Merch store ( http://www.fist2face.com.au/?gyroscope) in the next week or two. We shall keep you posted.

Jam packed right in the middle of the Cohesion Tour, the Gyro's packed their wares and headed off to Wollongong for the filming of their very exciting Channel [V] Live show. The Waves venue was jam packed with lucky fans who managed to scoop up the winners tickets, and the amazing Channel [V] set made it one special show indeed. We hear the boys even chucked in a sneaky Nirvana cover. Missed out? The show is being aired on Channel [V] a bunch of times this month, head to www.vmusic.com.au for details.

If that is simply not enough of a Gyroscope visual delight for you, fair enough. There is always more. If you haven't seen the very adorable video for current single Baby, I'm Gettin' Better then you can do so here. What's more is that there is a behind the scenes of the video now streaming on the killer Gyroscope website. Find out how it was made and watch the boys talking about it at http://www.gyroscope.com.au/. Our buddies at iTunes are peddling a very sweet deal as we speak, where you can buy the Baby, I'm Gettin' Better single PLUS the video for the track for a meagre $1.69. Hit that deal up right here: http://itunes.apple.com/au/album/baby-im-gettin-better-single/id375152099

Keeping the live ball rolling (as usual) Gyroscope brought out their show for two special intimate performances in Melbourne and Perth courtesy of Nova. The Melbourne date took place in an aeroplane hanger (and had Dan rockin' it from the wing of a very old plane!) while the Perth show went down at the iconic Astor Theatre. If you missed those shows you can take a squiz at photos form the Astor date right here: http://www.novafm.com.au/Nova937/Photo_Gyroscope-Live-at-the-Astor_133457

Oh, and now onto live recordings! If you cast your minds back a little earlier in the year you'll remember that Gyroscope played Triple J's annual One Night Stand, this year in Alice Springs. Well, it was aired as Triple J's Live at the Wireless last month. If you want to live (or re-live) the live moments then head over to the Triple J website (http://www.triplej.net.au/) to listen to some lovely live sounds courtesy Gyroscope.

There are some more killer live moments to come, with Gyroscope poised to take to stages in Coolangatta, Cairns, Rockhampton, Penrith and more over the coming months! Get down to a show if you can, we promise that you will not regret it. All tour dates for your excitement below as always.

BRAND NEW SINGLE 'BABY I'M GETTIN' BETTER'

COHESION TOUR JUST AROUND THE CORNER!

Alrighty, the second single from Gyroscope's mighty Cohesion album is coming your way, and it's Baby, I'm Gettin' Better. Taken from the #3 ARIA debuting record Cohesion, Baby I'm Gettin' Better is one of the most uplifting and energising (not to mention downright fun!) tracks from the album. We're sure you already know that already. What you probably don't know is that the song began as something of a country ditty before the band and Gil Norton (producer extraordinaire) crafted it into the lovable pop rock track it is today.

Baby I'm Gettin' Better - hits iTunes Friday June 4th

Now, no doubt Baby (as we like to call it around here) will be getting it's stellar live debut at one of the dates on the ever approaching and massively exciting Cohesion Tour.

Tickets are on sale right now, so be sure to hit them up right here before it's too late.

Of course what would make a new single even more exciting than a video? Yep - trusty Myspace are premiering the eye popping new video for Baby I'm Gettin' Better as we speak. Check out the guys running all over Sydney town in mind boggling live stop action by clicking the link below.

Gyroscope May News

2010-05-03T00:59:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the Gyroscope May News.

Well, things have certainly been stepped up a notch in Gyroscope land during the past month. We here at Gyroscope HQ are super excited by everything that has gone down and is set to go down. All things Gyroscope are now moving forward at a thrilling pace. So here goes...

Gyroscope's fourth album Cohesion has now finally been released far and wide. To celebrate it's release (you might have got wind) the band will be hitting the road on their huge Cohesion Tour. Taking in some very beautiful venues this June, Gyroscope will be taking along Melbourne upstarts The Vasco Era in addition to Sydney stalwarts After the Fall. In a special treat for home-state audiences, local heroes Break Even will take over support duties for WA. The band are ready to bring their famous killer live show to audiences from Bunbury to Canberra. We hear they will be pulling out tracks from Cohesion for the first time alongside well-worn crowd favourites. Tickets are on sale now! All dates are below for your excitement, and tickets can be scooped up via Ticketek: www.ticketek.com.au - 132 849.

Now that Cohesion is stocked up in stores all over the country we trust that you are enjoying it as much as we are! The great news is that Cohesion debuted at a huge #3 on the ARIA charts! It's second week out it held fast at a fairly awesome #10.

April 9th also saw the band play a special acoustic in-store at 78 Record's in Perth. which everybody was very happy with. We have been sent some great photos by fans, and it seems like a good time was had by all. Fasterlouder were kind enough to send along a snapper to capture all the action for those who couldn't be there. All the photos can be found here.

Not only can you now score Cohesion on CD or via iTunes, you can have it in vinyl format - and trust us, it looks beautiful! If you don't believe us, check it out here.

Vinyl not your thing? Perhaps television is...Gyroscope will be appearing on this weeks' episode of the newly returned Hey Hey It's Saturday! The band will be joining the show to play the first single from Cohesion Some of the Places I Know. Keep your eyes on the Hey Hey website later on this week as the band will also be playing a second track just for the live audience. Hey Hey It's Saturday goes live to air this Wednesday at 7.30pm on Channel 9.

Way back in March, as we are sure you all know Gyroscope rocked Alice Springs on the very massive Triple J One Night Stand. Check out this backstage video of the guys that we dug up on the Triple J website over here.

It was announced a couple of weeks back that the second single to be lifted from Cohesion will be Baby, I'm Gettin' Better The lifting rock track should be hitting your radios real soon, so keep your ears out for it. Even better, filming of the video has wrapped up and we should have it ready for you in the next week or two. If you have yet to feast your eyes upon the stunning video for Some of the Places I Know - have a look at the Gyroscope Youtube! www.youtube.com/gyroscope

For now, if you're really diggin' the sounds of Some of the Places I Know, then vote for it on the Hot 30! Here is a whole swag of links to vote for it wherever you might be in Australia.

Sydney - 2Day FM
Melbourne - FOX FM
Brisbane - B105
Adelaide - SA FM
Perth - 929 FM

We'll be keeping the exciting news coming your way in the next issue of the Gyroscope news, so stay tuned for more.

An important message from Gyroscope

2010-04-22T01:00:00.000-07:00

It has just come to our attention that Warner Music are releasing a ‘Best of Gyroscope’ album. We only found out about this release after being notified by our fans on Facebook.

The song selection, artwork and everything about this release has been done without consultation with the band.

Gyroscope are a band who have always put our fans first. In our opinion, the release of this album without consultation with the band, and without including any material from our new album ‘Cohesion’, does not represent good value for our fans.

Zok, Daniel, Brad & Rob (Gyroscope)

GYROSCOPE - 'COHESION' TOUR

2010-04-18T22:26:00.000-07:00

‘COHESION’ NATIONAL TOUR - JUNE 2010

COHESION: - noun 1. The act or state of cohering, uniting, or sticking together.

Rarely has an album title ever rung as true as this most recent offering from Perth rock stalwarts Gyroscope. Gyroscope's status as one of Australia's premiere rock acts has now been solidified, as Cohesion enjoys a huge #3 debut on the ARIA charts! With fourth album Cohesion Gyroscope finally translate the famed rawness of their live show into a recorded, tangible tour de force.

Having packed rooms on their whirlwind and very noisy Some of the Places I Know tour throughout March, Gyroscope is now preparing to take things up a notch, on June’s Cohesion Tour! To celebrate the release of this rock’n’roll opus, Gyroscope will be shaking up some of the largest and most beautiful venues they have ever been fortunate enough to tread the boards in.

In true Gyroscope form, true Gyroscope fanatics can get in on the action before everybody else. All you need to do is head to www.gyroscope.com.au and sign up to the Gyroscope mailing list before 5.00pm Wednesday April 21st to take part in a special ticket pre-sale. You'll be emailed the secret code to take part in the Cohesion tour pre-sale. sure to jump in quick smart for tickets, these dates will see Gyroscope performing not only their tried and true crowd pleasing favourites, but also a hefty helping of selections from Cohesion, a few of them for the very first time!

Joining Gyroscope on this noisy jaunt around the country will be Melbourne's The Vasco Era and Sydney's After the Fall. With a reputation for tireless live shows, The Vasco Era are riding along on the recent release of their brand new album Lucille and ready to shake some stages. The After the Fall lads have hit the trails with Gyroscope several times in the past, and are sure to be a fantastic, rounding out this huge bill. Meanwhile, WA dates will see local trouble-makers Break Even step up to the plate on support duties.

The force of Gyroscope live is truly something to be reckoned with; there are few that would dispute this. Drum Media but recently remarked in raptures “this band plays a world class rock show that is only getting better with age.” We couldn’t have put it better ourselves.
