Jim Moginie & The Family Dog

Jim Moginie & The Family Dog return with their follow up to their 2018 debut ‘Bark Overtures’.

Jim Moginie (Midnight Oil), Kent Steedman and Paul Larsen Loughhead (Celibate Rifles) and Tim Kevin (The Apartments, La Huva) have made a dirty rock record live in Jim’s Oceanic Studio in Sydney,

Jim:

‘We’re releasing THUNK on physical format only, for now, as the tech giants are slowly killing the music industry by denying musicians income with pitiful streaming payments and thereby preventing artists from making decent sounding records, with its domino eﬀect on recording budgets, studios and mastering engineers and everyone down the line.

Investing in AI harvesting and creation of AI content, their only motivation is profit, and in Spotify’s case assisting in the creation of actual war machines.

This culture has successful encircled the very way that music is consumed today, and is killing the very thing that creates it.

As part of the turning of the tide with many artists and consumers are pushing back.

That’s why we’re only releasing THUNK on cassette, vinyl and CD through Songland Records, who will ship it to every corner of the world. The record has live oﬀ the floor feeling that had to be preserved at all costs, and that rawness is manifest, recorded and mixed onto analog tape old school style. And we’ll go out a support it live with a tour in February and March 2026 where the physical record will be available too.’

THUNK’s lyrics deal with current concerns, well meaning and misplaced advice, nostalgia for some mythical lost Australian past and the death of the First Amendment to name just a few.

Lead songs are ‘Sunny Boy’, ’I’ve Got Things To Say’, ‘5G’, ‘The First Amendment’ and ‘Satan And The Chosen People’.
