Distortion and fuzz, tremelo and delay, flanger and phaser, chorus and wah. Silence Dead Silence are scientists of sound. Instruments that can only be loud. Four men who desperately still wish it was 1994. Feedback and bass, crashes and stops, heavy and rock, but never just silence.
Pigeonhole at your own peril, but SDS have been taking their brand of fuzzed out stoner indie-core to the people of Melbourne since forming in the hallows of a small, and soon extremely loud garage in suburban Box Hill. Live, the sounds are big and full of impact, delivered with sincerity to the cause of rock and roll.
Roll up roll up, Vultures of Venus are back in town you funky disco cats. And guess what? ... their self-titled debut LP is finally here! Ten tracks of unadulterated Glampunk Electro madness! It’s unleashed on Thursday 29th of October at Bar Open on Brunswick St. It’s Bowie on steroids; it’s Marquis de Sade and Andy Warhol screaming at the moon through a home-made vocoder. The Lollyshop is open for business ! It’s going to be a huge night filled with bubble machines, strobes, psychedelic video projections and cautionary tales to tell your grandchildren. It will also feature live performances from those vixens of burlesque “the Venus Man Traps”. Support on the night comes from psych-popsters Go-Go Sapien serving up synth-infected garage with lashings of ravenous big sexy guitars. Make sure you get down early to catch the debut performance by newcomers Tusk. And most importantly we have kept the entry fee down to a very affordable – FREE ! Copies of Vultures of Venus’s LP can be scoped up for a low $10 on the night. Yee-Har space cadets !
