My spring bucket list includes zero allergies, thanks.

My go-to spring refreshment is a fruit filled glass of Pimm’s.

I’m listening to new Frank Ocean by the time you’re reading this, else somebody’s gonna get hurt.

I’m influenced by: Gillian Flynn, the author of Gone Girl. Her writing style is amazing and I love all the twists in her stories. I hope to write a book more shocking than any of hers!

If I could be any TV or film character for a day, I would be Jeannie from I Dream of Jeannie—but I’d do less Master-pleasing and, you know, actually enjoy my essentially limitless power. One band everyone should see live is Savages— Jehnny Beth is out of this world. When I’m not behind the lens, I’m usually editing with one hand, clutching a glass of wine with the other or making things with my best bud for our label, Vermillion. The most unusual encounter I’ve had was with a boozy Kit Harrington asking to share my cigarette at 2.00am in Camden. That’s kinda like making out, no?

JOURNALIST

My job at TEO takes me to incredible new businesses around Adelaide. I get to meet so many wonderful and creative people. I love seeing how vibrant and eclectic Adelaide is becoming. My personality described as a colour would be yellow because I try to always be bright and bubbly, and I love making people laugh. Something few people know about me is that I’ve skydived out of a helicopter in the Swiss Alps. I didn’t do it for the thrill like most people—it was purely just to get a better view because I was so obsessed with Switzerland! I’m currently hooked on Brood’s new album, Conscious. I’ve been playing it on repeat!

EDITOR’S LETTER We’re doing things a little differently in this issue; regular readers will know we love getting in theme—it’s the one thing you can count on with each issue…except this one. We’ve shaken things up and in the spirit of the ‘themeless’ theme, it was mandatory for the editor’s letter to be a little different too. Instead of my usual spiel, here’s a quick Q&A to hint at what’s to come. Enjoy!

WHAT WOULD ISSUE 14 BE IF… If it was a movie? Weekend at Bernie’s. If it was an emoji? The cocktail emoji—it’s a mix of everything! If it was a food? Rainbow Layer Cake. If it was a place? The zoo. If it was a time of day? Midday. If it was a smell? Beer, baked goods, body odour, baby powder and a bit of everything else! If it was a celebrity? Bowie, baby. Susannah x

THE GIRLS FROM STONEFIELD HAVE BROADENED THEIR MUSICAL PALATE WITH THEIR SECOND RECORD, AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, AND IT DEFINITELY INSPIRES US TO DAYDREAM WHILE DANCING.

Australia’s well-loved sister act, Stonefield, has traversed the globe and is back to showcase the band’s sophomore album. The four sisters, Amy (vocals/drums), Hannah (guitar), Sarah (keys) and Holly Findlay (bass) have delved deeper into colourful psych-rock territory with their new record As Above, So Below. It’s brimming with kaleidoscopic guitar riffs, swirling melodies and hallucinogenic vocals. It’s wonderful to see Stonefield’s rapidly progressing musical maturity, and to find out a bit more about the girls, TEO had a chat to Hannah while they were in the midst of their US tour in June.

TEO: Congratulations on your sophomore record! Can you tell us a bit about As Above, So Below?

Hannah: Thanks! We’ve been working on it for a long time and we’re really excited for when people get to hear it. It’s been through so many different phases and so many

different songs but we’re really happy with the final product. How did you happen onto the title?

It’s a representation of everything that’s happening around us at the moment, and understanding that there’s

something bigger than us, as people on earth. We’re just

trying to learn to embrace life and everything that occurs. Now, I believe you collaborated with Kram (Mark Maher) from the great Aussie band, Spiderbait. Did any of the songs make it on the record?

Yes, we did! Right at the start of the whole album

process we met him at a gig in Melbourne and ended up

jamming with him, really clicking and becoming pretty

great friends. One of our singles, ‘Golden Dream’, was a collaboration with him and there are a few others where it was a pre-production or a writing collaboration with him.

You’ve released three singles so far, the most recent being ‘Changes’, and I definitely hear some Tame Impala vibes in that bass line! Who were your biggest influences in the making of this record?

We listened to a whole bunch of different people. But

For those of us with siblings, it’s baffling that you work together so well! How do you guys get along and manage to create such innovative music?

Well, we definitely don’t get along all of the time! But we’re pretty lucky that we do have quite a close relationship, and we get along most of the time. But when we do have arguments, it’s something that we get over quite quickly and move on. We’re learning, as we grow older, not to take everything to heart. You’re touring in the US at the moment; how are the American fans?

Oh, good! We’re sort of starting afresh over here, but it’s been really awesome to play shows and have people come up to us that know our music, or that have found us on the internet and are now seeing us live. We didn’t expect that; we thought we’d be playing shows to people who had never heard of us before. It was a really nice surprise! You’ve got your second record almost out, won awards, played festivals like Glastonbury and South by South West, opened for Fleetwood Mac. Basically, you’ve done quite a lot of epic things! So, what are you most proud of?

Oh that’s a hard one! I think each gig that we play is something to be proud of. But definitely supporting

After that, I got stuck into uni, which was basically the same thing, except I spent all my money on KFC and party dresses. Brydie is 19.

QUEENSRŸCHE’S 2015 RELEASE, CONDITION HÜMAN IS EXPERIMENTAL, PROGRESSIVE AND A BIT OF A THROWBACK TO THE QUEENSRŸCHE OF OLD. IN OTHER WORDS, IT’S EPIC, AND THEY’LL BE BRINGING IT TO AUSTRALIA IN OCTOBER

T E O M A G A Z I N E . C O M . A U

T E O M A G

The dream is to wake up and go to work doing something you love, and the men behind America’s progressive metal band, Queensrÿche, have been doing just that for the past 30 years. A lot of music can be written in 30 years, and Queensrÿche has delivered a staggering 15 records, with the band’s latest released just mid last year. Since January, they’ve been touring Condition Hüman, which has appeared on charts all over the globe, and the guys are set to visit Australian shores for the first time in almost a decade. This is the second time vocalist Todd LaTorre has joined Michael Wilton (guitar), Parker Lundgren (guitar), Eddie Jackson (bass) and Scott Rockenfield (drums) to tour. Michael Wilton tells TEO they wanted to make this record more special; they started recording it in a time of their lives when everyone had quietened down. With a new producer, Zeuss (who’s worked with the likes of Hatebreed, Rob Zombie and Whitechapel among many others), the band was restored to its former sound: teasing out the unforgettable guitar parts, the powerful bass lines and the distinct drums. “He wanted to give us a modern sounding record, but he didn’t want it to sound vintage or anything… [the album] was more experimental in some aspects and a bit progressive in others. We took chances, and that’s what we used to do in the old days,” Michael says. The fans have jumped on the characteristics of the old Queensrÿche in Condition Hüman, and say that it could’ve been released in 1995, 1996 or even 1997. The saying is: nothing ever goes out of style, and Queensrÿche seem to have proved this, bringing back the old and making it new again. In terms of the content, the record has 12 songs that are all mini stories, and sit under the umbrella of the human condition. “This was written from the view point of where we were at that time, and it’s a time capsule of what we were going through lyrically,” Michael explains. Although the band has written some killer concept albums in the past—we’re talking the platinum record Operation: Mindcrime in 1988 and its sequel, Operation: Mindcrime II in 2006—this time around it wasn’t something they wanted to touch. Michael describes concept albums as a whole different animal, and considering it has to be

pieced together to be cohesive and flowing, it can’t get pretentious. So the approach with this record was more organic, and it was a little more fun seeing which songs ended up on the record. Of course, inspirations from other bands and tours always have an impact on the music, and Michael names Dio as one who taught them a lot about touring and how the industry worked, as well as Iron Maiden as the band he looks up to. Now, they’ve even toured with Scorpion—a band he used to listen to as a teenager. “It’s great to come full circle and do some touring with them, it’s been incredible,” Michael beams. These days he likes hard rock and progressive bands, like Mastodon and Ghost, but still listens to Rush, Pink Floyd and all of those classics, which will never get old. “It’s timeless stuff and I can always find something special in their music that I didn’t find before,” Michael explains. Aussie fans have been waiting for the moment to see Queensrÿche live for years. The band has toured the east coast of the US, played M3 Rock Festival and now they’re back playing some more dates in the US before heading to Europe, Japan and finally Australia and New Zealand. There’s no sign of slowing down because after this year, Queensrÿche is getting started on the next album.

PIERCE THE VEIL AND THEIR MISADVENTURES

WE TALK ALL THINGS ALBUM-RELATED WITH PIERCE THE VEIL’S BASS PLAYER, JAIME PRECIADO.

San Diego natives, Pierce The Veil, have had nothing but growing success after they released Collide with the Sky back in 2012. Their fourth studio album, Misadventures, was launched in May this year, after being pushed back and broken up with a world tour. The album is a brilliant blend of punk, post-hardcore and even a taste of synthy pop—exactly what Pierce The Veil fans were waiting for. With the band currently on a world tour, TEO got to chat to Jaime Preciado, bassist for the band.

TEO: You took your time with Misadventures. How does it feel to finally show everyone what you’ve done?

Jaime: Oh man, it’s great, we put a lot of work into

that record! Being able to look back and see how big it actually all was, with all the time, the release date and the artwork; it’s just very exciting. A weight has been lifted

off our shoulders and we are so relieved that we got the record that we wanted to make.

Would you say it’s your biggest album yet, given your success with Collide with the Sky?

Obviously you want it to be. I think with every record that we’ve done, we’ve always been trying to outdo ourselves. We’ve tried to become a better version of ourselves—as

musicians, songwriters, better vocalists and every aspect

of the word. Personally I do think it is a better version of us. It’s not an album that you can play without having to play it again and really listen to it. The depth to it is incredible!

That’s just how we’ve always written music. We try to keep things interesting, adding little tid-bits here and

there and, like you said, on first listen you don’t really

hear everything that’s going on. You have to listen to it

a couple of times to pick out little parts and I think some of my favourite records have done that. You need to hear

the song over and over and over again to kind of get everything that is going on. It’s never intentional though.

‘Circles’ is about the Bataclan massacre; do you think it’ll be difficult to play live?

Obviously the song is about Paris and the attack. The main story in our song is two friends saving each other.

It’s about two friends who went to a show that ended in crazy chaos, and through all that stuff they were able to

save each other. It makes us wanna play it live even more because when you’re at a show, regardless of where

guitarist. It’s gonna be a challenge to play live, but I think we’re gonna be able to pull it off. If we do, it’ll be great. It’s a fun song though, one that we wanted to make more old school. The fact we get to put it out as a single is great, because singles are normally reserved for more of a pop vibe, I guess. So having that for the single, was a really cool thing for us. Do you ever feel the weight of your fans’ attention while you’re writing? Or is it something that comes after you’ve produced the record and got it out for everyone to see? I think it’s a little bit of both. Naturally you have that in the back of your head, but I don’t think it’s ever part of the process. If anything, we have to impress ourselves. We have to say ‘hey guys, does this get you going? Does this make you feel good?’ Then, when we are jamming, it has

to feel right. And if it doesn’t feel good live, then how is it going to feel good on a record? I feel as though the album is anxious and tense, like something big is about to happen. Your interpretation of how we put the songs together, and in order is like a ‘set list’, if you will, for our album. It does come out that way—start with the opening track, because that’s creating the tension, then the progressive song that gets your attention even more. You slow it down and bring it up. I think that’s a cool way you kind of described that. What’s the best bit about touring? Easy—being able to play music with your friends every night. It’s the best. It’s the cheesy answer. We’re very lucky to be able to do what we do. Pierce The Veil’s latest album, Misadventures, can be found online and in record stores.

you’re at in the world, everyone is there for the same

reason. It’s really just human interaction and so I really can’t wait to play that song live. It’s an incredibly cool feeling to share that song.

‘Texas is Forever’ is your fastest song ever. How will you keep up on stage?

We were joking in the studio and we really love going

into that fast punk stuff, going to see bands and trying to figure out who is the fastest drummer and the fastest

INSPIRATION IN TRUE FORM RUBY VAN LEUVEN TALKS BEAUTY STANDARDS AND SHARES HER WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE YOUNGER GENERATION.

Founder of RVL Makeup, Ruby Van Leuven is a 21-year-old inspired artist who paints off the original canvas and is making quite a name for herself within the makeup and fashion industry. She started her makeup course in her first semester of university, and now she’s in her final year of a Bachelor of Speech Pathology. Having studied visual arts throughout high school, the makeup tied in with her artistic side, and because university was all theory, the hands-on experience gave Ruby a creative outlet. “I’d been thinking about doing makeup for a while, and I started investigating it and I found a course (Retail Makeup and Skincare), which ended up being perfect for me. It was within the first week of being there that I thought ‘hell yes, I love this.’” Ruby says the course really suited her because it was something she could practice on herself. When she decided to open her own business, she didn’t have any experience and had absolutely no idea what she was doing. Luckily, part of her course was centred around developing a business, including: name ideas, building up a client base and working with social media. “You’ve got to stand out from other people if you want to be noticed. You need to practice on people and practice your technique so your skills become better, which starts to travel via word of mouth, and that’s still happening. I’m still building my client base now.”

Because Ruby still studies full time, she can’t dedicate

enough time to her business and networking, which

she finds difficult when she sees professionals on social

media who are doing it as a full-time career. She realised she had to stop comparing herself to these people because they don’t have the commitments she has.

Ruby has a disability called Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenital, which is a rare neuromuscular condition

affecting the joints and muscles in the body. She was born with this and as a result, she grew up in a wheelchair, which has made her career all the more challenging.

“Having a disability impacts [my job] because people have their preconceived ideas of what your abilities might

be and they might be a little hesitant or unsure. Having a freelance business, there might be that expectation you

can travel to people’s houses or locations for formals or weddings or other things, so that’s sometimes a little

bit tricky. Most of the time though, people are really flexible and often compromise.”

Ruby also found it challenging to find a job in the industry before she opened her franchise.

“It can be quite hard when you have an interview and it seems to go really well, and you go over your resume

and experiences, only for them to come back and say ‘we don’t think you have enough experience’ or ‘there

aren’t enough jobs for you’ or ‘we just don’t think you’re the right person.’ You can kind of see where they’re

coming from, but at the same time you wonder what percentage of that is actually about not being suited

to the position, and what percentage of it is because they don’t want to accommodate for my needs. That’s incredibly frustrating.”

The makeup artist has an aspiration to delve into plus-size modelling, so we asked her opinion on the Australian modelling industry.

body to what is considered ‘typically beautiful’ and I think it’s very important that that message gets out there.” Having grown up in a wheelchair, Ruby didn’t have many role models to look up to. She would have loved to see someone in a position of power who happened to be in a wheelchair, just to tell her ‘well, actually, you’re allowed to like your body, you don’t have to be ashamed of it like society is telling you to be.’ From this, Ruby has discovered she wants to be that person for others out there who don’t fit in with the typical beauty ideals. “I want to say ‘regardless of what size, shape, colour, ability, anything that you are, whatever stage in life you’re at, whatever stage you’re at with happiness or sadness, you are allowed to love yourself.’” The makeup industry is always expanding and all artists must be original in what they bring to the business. Ruby says that because she knows what it feels like to not be confident or beautiful, it allows her to connect with clients in a different way. Ruby draws her inspiration from artists around the world, varying from makeup to visual art, and uses it in a way that might not normally be used. She loves any style from the 1920s to the 1960s and incorporates them into her work with a modern twist. She tends to approach the job as creating a character rather than just a look, making sure the person feels what they’re wearing. Ruby loves to take elements of a person’s life and put them into their makeup. Throughout Ruby’s experience in building her business and approaching the industry from her position, she’s learned you can’t rely on society to get you there —you have to do it yourself. “It’s important to have these people like myself in the industry because that’s when change will happen,” Ruby says. “Makeup can be for anyone and can have the power to transform anyone and make them feel creative and amazing and a piece of art. [Just] do you, because no one else can do that better than yourself.”

“I like where things are going now in terms of the body positivity movement: we’re accepting all bodies and

celebrating female beauty for what it is in its raw form, and not conforming to what society says is beautiful. I

very much support that because I have a very different
