   About The Specimens
BIOGRAPHY by Bruce Milne, Infidelity recordings>>> "Sometimes a good band becomes an incredible band. The Specimens are proof of it. Their 2005 album, The Quick & The Deaf, suprised and amazed a lot of people. Every track is on the album a short, witty, glorious, rock classic. All killer, no filler. Formed in the back streets of St Kilda in 2002, the Specimens have built a sizeable following around Australia, Europe and Scandinavia with a minimum of fuss and gimmicks but a maximum of energy and volume. Theyve supported a whos who of great rocknroll bands (The Datsuns, MC5, Radio Birdman, Jet, Guitar Wolf, Modey Lemon, Deep Reduction, Dozer, Young Heart Attack, Magic Dirt, Rose Tattoo, The Hard-Ons, The Meanies, The D4, The Turbo Acs, Dollhouse, Brides of Destruction, Celibate Rifles and many more) As well as sharing stages with John Spencer Blues Explosion & Spiderbait at Melbourne's Big Day Out 2005, Livid and St Kilda festivals. Their debut LP, Fast & Loose, was album of the week in Beat and InPress Magazine, Melbourne. The Quick and the Deaf received worldwide a release and fruitful recognition from Europe. Since their 2006 Winter European tour the Specimens have just completed their 3rd LP entitled 'Jazz Brutus'. Stay tuned for future release and tour details. Keep checking out this site if you know whats good for you!" Check Out Fast and Loose Film Clip .. width="425" height="350"> ..>

No one gets out alive as the 'VULTURES OF VENUS' prepare to lay siege at the MLG band comp on Saturday the 7th of March at 'The Croxton Hotel', 607 Northcote High Street . Come see the lads as they compete with the cream of the Northcote band scene. The Vultures will be sharpening their spears and loading their guns for this one playing at 9.00pm along side Montauk, RadioStar and The Whole Molko.

The 'Vultures of Venus' play at PONY on Saturday March the 12th at 68 Little Collins St. These glam, space punks come armed with guitars, keyboards and fat electro beats and intend to recruit all you dandys in searching for the perfect mix of old school camp rock and modern big beat electronica. With supports 'Smurfinger' and 'Cure Motel' this promises to be a rock extravaganza with bells on. Evening kicks off 9.00pm.

Dearest Dick Lover,
My dear son and his naughty band have released a fitting tribute to the
end of George Bush's reign of terror with their animated filmclip George
Bush's Chicken. Starring George W at home on the ranch with his muslem
chicken Ned as well as guest appearances from some of his closest circle
including Osama Bin Laden, Paris Hilton, Saddam Hussein, Barack Obama and
Mr Ed, this is the behind the scenes insight the world has long waited for.
Kindest Regards
Gladys Desert

KILLING LIARS UPDATE


Hey you, Peckermoth!!! flap your wings and fly. Killing Liars are going to kick you in the tit and punch your cigarette. We have been dancing around the backyard with our Bell ends blowing in the breeze for way too long. We have spawned, shed our skins, eaten Christmas Turkey and now we are ready.

Shouldn't be long now, sit tight... enjoy the wait. We certainly are!!! Hey, just think about this. The Meatbeak with the face that stinks like boiled meat and choped liver. Searching, searching.... staring into the hookers cunt he realised pleasure is fleeting. Once we are out there doing our thing with zing your going to wish it never happened. Tube up, sit down enjoy the show....

Lips, born to sizzle.... snag it!

Very Brutal i'm told
