The Lifted Brow
Article published 19th Sep 07
It has been said, and perhaps rightly so, that there's not much to do in Brisbane of an evening. Sometimes there's not much to do of a morning either, or even of a late afternoon. This is why we should look twice at the creative output of young Brisbanians for, like so many Huckleberry Finns, they rely on their plucky imaginations in the daily quest for amusement.
THE LIFTED BROW is a testament to such deprivations. It blows our lazy, big-city zines out of their puddles. Even the interviews are quirky and well-thought-out. None of this lamo ‘what was the inspiration for your band name?' - all interview questions in issue 001 were taken from I WISH I FELT GOOD ALL OF THE TIME, a book of Christian devotions for children by Mildred Tengbom, producing moments of hilarity such as:LIFTED BROW: If you don't wear the latest or best clothes, what do others say?
Animal Collective: "Are you going to a Jimmy Buffet concert?"
