EDDY CURRENT SUPPRESSION RING
Melbourne four piece EDDY CURRENT SUPPRESSION RING are arguably the most engaging live band in the land, and have fostered a diehard fan-base who can often be found hanging from the rafters at every show. Their second full length album Primary Colours has recently landed – a rollicking set of classics that straps early Saints and Wire to the bones of X and throws in a bit of Devo and the Troggs for good measure. www.myspace.com/eddycurrentsuppressionring
SUPER WILD HORSES
Melbourne two piece Super Wild Horses met in an all girls catholic school
in the summer of 96. It took twelve years for them to form a band. Homemade songs about blood, ghosts and golden arrows are beaten up by messed up rhythms and shoolyard yells. www.myspace.com/superwildhorses
PINK REASON
This is haunting, heavy music that nods to bad trips and hard times.
Kevin writes and home records all of the Pink Reason music; he
has lived in remote Midwestern towns and even more remote Siberian
villages, and his unsettling music speaks of isolation and desolation.
The Pink Reason sound contains elements of the English post-punk /
goth bands like Bauhaus or Joy Division at their most minimal, yet
also sounds similar to acoustic psychedelic rock like that of Syd
Barrett or Nick Drake in their more morose and introspective
incarnations. In all, it’s some of the most horrific and beautiful
music we’ve heard in a long time. www.myspace.com/secondculture
THE STABS
Seedy, menacing and disturbing swamp rock, a thick mess that recalls The Scientists and Lubricated Goat. With a vicious guitar sound and a bottom end so blown out it threatens to swallow you up, The Stabs have earned a reputation for their highly charged, menacing live presence. www.myspace.com/thestabs
GOODNIGHT LOVING (USA)
Goodnight Loving developed out of the same scene as great new garage bands like Reigining Sound, Jay Reatard and the Black Lips, smoothing the edges of wild basement punk into something more organic, twangy and irresistibly catchy - effortlessly weaving country, garage rock, folk and pop into a sound all their own. www.myspace.com/thegoodnightloving
JAMES ARTHUR'S MANHUNT (USA)
Fuzz soaked reverb drenched Texas Hick rises back to the surface with
new band and record -- JAMES ARTHURS MANHUNT!
A home made shack-recorded ripper! Pulling from past bands Fireworks,
Necessary Evils, Feast of Snakes and the Golden Boys.
With his third eye planted deep in the heart of Texas psyche -- noise,
retarded lyrics, heartfelt pleas to the Gods -- it's all there! www.myspace.com/jarthurjarthur
OOGA BOOGAS
The Boogas file onto the stage with reckless abandon, spit out globules of tunes like a fine jerky fire-hose, then drain away. Think multiple irrigation channel breaches on steroids, flooding the pasture to soak the briny depths. Combine passion, youth, experience, reluctant vocals and a set-list inbued with smoky wisdom. This troupe is sure to make an impression. www.myspace.com/theoogaboogas
THE UV RACE
Crude proto-punk reminiscent of the glory days of VOM, Modern Lovers, Zakary Thaks, Electric Eels, Crime, and a whole host of historic losers THE UV RACE are a killer slice of idiot savant punk rock. www.myspace.com/the_uv_race
DEAF WISH
Deaf Wish are an incredible live band, delivering an intense, stripped back Australian punk sound with a wall of tangled, abrasive guitar noise. Comparable to Dinosaur Jr or Pavement, their sound was conceived in small town isolation and born into the paranoia of city living. www.myspace.com/deafwishstyle
SLUG GUTS
Slug Guts are from the heat oppressed confines of Brisbane, creating damaged arsehole music that takes cues from Lubricated Goat, Birthday Party and Venom P. Slug Guts LP "Down on the Meant" will be out soon on Stained Circles records. In one year of existence: Finished LP, Falco arrested twice, played with Flipper, Went on tour twice, got fucked with once. Never again. www.myspace.com/slugslugguts
DICK DIVER
Combining the expansive romanticism of Australian heroes the Go-Betweens or the Triffids, plus a muscular dash of late 70s New York punk a la Television, Dick Diver have won Melbourne hearts aplenty since forming around six months ago. www.myspace.com/dickdiverband
ROYAL HEADACHE
Royal Headache are four musical obsessives from the harbour city who channel their affection of the best elements of punk, power pop, soul and garage to create songs that will stay with you - permanently. Debut 7" EP out soon. www.myspace.com/royalheadache
NAKED ON THE VAGUE
NOTV hail from Sydney, Australia, bringing to the outside world their own brand of apocalyptic pop and dark psychedelic weirdness since 2005.... The Naked On The Vague approach meshes punk, industrial and psychedelic sounds all tinkered with a heavy dose of distortion and delay. www.myspace.com/nakedonthevague
THE DISBELIEVERS
The Disbelievers have no interest in reinventing the wheel. Sometimes it’s on, sometimes
its a mess. Dance‐floor shakers, wild rockers and tear jerkers . It’s all about raw primal
energy, and it is safe to say they will always be the last drinking at the bar. www.myspace.com/theedisbelievers
THE NATIVE CATS
Native Cats don’t have cramped urban terror to contend with so they channel the docility of the Tasmanian “inner city” into a Kraut meets Suicide sickness of minimal beats, cold vocals and throbbing bass. A deeply sexual band. www.myspace.com/thenativecats
THE TWERPS
The Twerps make warmhearted pop music, low on flash but high on feeling. Although they draw on 80s Flying Nun and 90s lo-fi sounds, the Twerps are really about the eccentric songwriting of Martin Frawley, set against the crystal melodies of guitarist Julia McFarlane. www.myspace.com/thetwerpstheband
TEEN ARCHER
The legacy of Melbourne’s pub punk rock scene of the late 80’s is captured by kids who weren’t even alive to experience it in a pram – the intense groove of The Stooges ‘Funhouse’ meets the manic, hyperactivity of suburban teenage kicks. www.myspace.com/teenarcher1
ZOND
ZOND are a maximum volume, minimalist sound rock group based in Melbourne, Australia. They are named after a member of the group's childhood dog and/or a Hi-God People track and/or satellite of the USSR. But ZOND are broadcasting very dark grey ecstasy, not from space but from a place deep inside the automatic mind brain. They are an audio holographic Rorschach blot flatlining, or a Freudian analysis gone horribly wrong on bad medicine from the future. Their live shows vary from a screaming psychedelic punk car crash to an ambient metal alloy hum: all that can be known in advance is the intensity of the performance. ZOND include members of past and present groups: On, Fong, Library Punks, Mum Smokes, Ned & the Meds, Wasted Truth... www.myspace.com/zond
REPAIRS
A confronting experience of dark synth drone soundscapes with a blown out drum machine and brooding vocals, sounding much like Suicide played very... agonisingly... slow. www.myspace.com/repairsband
"In a country with a million festivals Flip Out stood out by taking the best qualities of the bands that played it: it was fast, fun, and animated by a true DIY spirit. International bands shared billing with Australian underground favorites and everyone was left bruised, drunk, and happy." Liveguide.com.au
