10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!

In Australia, Boy & Bear are considered a homegrown Mumford and Sons for reasons that aren't immediately clear (their propensity for flat caps, maybe?). The more obvious touchstone, at least on their second album, which reached No 1 in Australia, is the California-dreaming stratum of 1970s rock. The opening trinity of Southern Sun, Old Town Blues and the title track, in fact, are clearly lost out-takes from Fleetwood Mac's eponymous 1975 album – or may as well be. That's how precisely they've nailed the tequila-sunrise mellowness, which acts as a gateway to an albumful of emollient soft rock. It's seductive stuff, pushing all the right wistfulness/optimism buttons and allowing the songs time to flow to a leisurely conclusion. One song ends in a brave skirl of Kenny G-style sax – that's how committed they are. Vocalist Dave Hosking is a moving purveyor of precarious emotional states – his bleakness on Bridges, a dream/nightmare memoir of their first American tour, is genuinely painful. End of the Line, by the way, dips a toe into folky diddlement you could call Mumfordian, but it's easy to skip....
