Grunge based regional Queenslanders move to big smoke, find alcohol. Ability to read sets them apart from peers. Not stoner rock.
A Brisbane rock band of no small reputation, Giants of Science have been trading in high volume, riffy, IHR (Intelligent Hard Rock) since 1999. Have supported McLusky, the MC3 (Dennis/Kramer/Turner), Radio Birdman, The Bellrays, Fronte End Loader and heaps of others. Voted "Best Band In Brisbane" by local svengali and drummer to the stars Nick Naughton. A good deal of rum on board, nerds.

"Also hugely enjoyable, highly original AND psychically useful is the
music of Australian duo The Scrapes, whose fiery epic guitar and
abandoned Mithraic fiddle pieces evoke images of lost Keltic lands
inundated by the oceans, lost Iberian & Armorican sea peoples and
lost times from beyond the beyond." Julian Cope
