THE STORY OF HOW DEATHCAGE CAME TO BE !!!
The idea for Deathcage came about when Danny and Kas re-met (after 9 years) at an Obituary show at the Manning Bar in May '07. In his youth, Danny would sling imported Japanese punk records on street corners around Sydney. Kas was a regular customer.
Around the same time (May '07) Kas spotted a tall Swedish tourist in a Discharge shirt at a Masstrauma show in Canberra. This was Nick Cage who was missing his Swedish punk band, Saboteur. He was more than keen to play hardcore in Australia.
In the meantime, Kas' brother, a glam rock head-banger called Romeo Bullet, was on a break from his hard rock band, Maniac (for which Kathrash drummed), for which he played guitar and sang. Romeo thought it would be fun to start thumping the bass to a bit of hardcore punk. The 4 started writing songs and jamming regularly in about June '07.
After having a bunch of songs written, but no singer/lyrics, Deathcage decided that Nick Cage would sing in Swedish (he can't speak a word of English). He has a sick voice, even sicker with an ancient viking language.
However, an old friend of Danny's, who had already expressed an interest in the band, SpiderXDeath, was found hobbling out of the ruins of his crust/speed-thrash band (Smash'N'Grab) in a daze. Having previously played in Sewer Cider and Farce with Danny, and being a long term GISM and Deathside addict, and a general sick cunt, he immediately grabed the mike and howled like a wolf in heat, and he hasn't stopped.
Thought we'd let you know that "ENTROPY Within" has a gig at CLUB BLINK on friday 24th July. Let them know at the door that you've come to see us and get a $2 discount.
hey i slaughtered the three deathcage 7"s in my (new) newsletter thing - i am sending copies this week (with that state poison record for ya), yes i am lazy and slow in sending shit....anyway cheeeers from london
I am now
recording for a new set of releases called the "Persona Series". These
cassettes will be commissioned works (not by content, but by payment)
for individuals. If John Smith in London, England wants his own Zebulon
Kosted album, I will make a 45 minute album (one side of a 90 minute
tape), 2 hand drawn mini posters, I will name the album after him
(Zebulon Kosted - John Smith), and the fan will retain all rights to
the recording (for use of any future release, sampling, or broadcasting
rights). One copy of the album will remain in my personal collection,
and one will be sent to the customer, so that the only copy that will
be in circulation will be John Smiths copy! Each album is available for
the ridiculously low price of $10 (not including shipping), and will be
shipped in its completed form no later than 6 weeks from the date of
purchase!!!
we got a brand-new 49 second nailbomb ear-fuck called 'stonebaby' on our page now for your listening enjoyment.
and if you are game enough to hear this (and many other) audio atrocities performed live, then get your arse up for this saturday, when tdg and Robots team up for some devastating underground grind action.
Hey.. Next time you are coming up to play in Brisbane it would be awesome to play a show with you guys so please let us know if you're interested and heading our way. Cheers Ben / Shane / Scott / Steve
