Bluetile Lounge

Bluetile Lounge formed in Perth, Western Australia in 1991. One of the band's early songs, "Concrete/Tunnels", featured on a compilation tape released by Guy Blackman's Chapter Music label. Blackman went on to become Bluetile Lounge's first producer. Bluetile Lounge entered a 23-year hiatus in 1998. In 2017, in ranking Lowercase as the fifth best slowcore album, Anthony Carew of ThoughtCo called it "a five-song, 45-minute study in isolationism, in a persistent loneliness leaving one feeling utterly unmoored; unsurprising sentiments for a band from Perth, the world's most isolated major city". == Reformation and reissues ==

In April 2021, Bluetile Lounge released a new demo track titled "Last Men" on Bandcamp. The band also announced plans on their Facebook page for a vinyl reissue of Lowercase, along with the release of additional new recordings. Adelaide-based Hobbledehoy Record Co. oversaw the addition of the Bluetile Lounge discography to streaming services in July 2021, with new artwork by band member Howard Healy. On June 17 of 2022, the band announced via their Facebook page that a new single, titled Easterly, was available via streaming services. Their first live show in 28 years has been announced for April 2026, in Melbourne. ==Members==
