Alternative Rock 2003 Studio and Live Live tracks recorded at the Metro Theatre in July 2002. No Rating Royal In The Afternoon sees Newtown's best export, The Whitlams, picking up the rhythm to deliver a foot tapping slice of feel good piano driven rock that will demand a reaction from the listener. Jangling guitars, some nifty electric solos and a warm female backing vocal add a nice touch and compliment the distinctive tones of frontman Tim Freedman. There is a huge audience out there for The Whitlams and if there was ever a way for commercial radio to reach them, this is it. Music Network - Jan 2003
