Pretty bloody excited to be revisiting my duo with Harriet Morgan/Military Position, which hasn't happened in about 3-4 years or something... alongside an absolute mind-boggler line-up!! Big cheers to Lloyd Honeybrook and whoever else is involved for making this happen.
Here's the recording from our first gig ever. In Shane Van Den Akker's kitchen, for an audience of 2 people: Shane, and some other guy who you can hear turn up part way through the set, who then immediately went outside. Memorable!

SPASMOSLOP in Ballarat video



Thanks heaps to REFUND for filming and uploading this awesome high-quality (watch in HD!) video of my set at RADICAL AUDIO TEMPLE in Ballarat.... I've been working on my solo stuff a lot this year... it's a constant work in progress and I think this video really captures the vibe of what I'm trying to do with SPASMOSLOP these days. Looking forward to recording soon for some new release(s) in 2016!

Recent stuff - 29/11/2015


Heaps of gigs over the last few months... SUPER FUN HAPPY SLIDE in Melbourne, UMBILICAL TENTACLE, CLOGGED and RITUAL OF THE BEUG in Newcastle, and CLOGGED took a stupid "cool band photo" on the highway back to Melbourne, MONO/DISCO/SPASM at Magnet, SPASMOSLOP in Ballarat, THE KILL went to Perth with CAPTAIN CLEANOFF and got driven around in a crazy old bus, first performance of a new trampoline-noisecore band with Matt Faisandier and Gemma Falconer at Make It Up Club... haven't updated the blog for ages cause I've been doing all this stuff... here's photos and videos from various people, all completely out of order, I've lost track, blog-writing is annoying... Lloyd Honeybrook, Carey Knight, Peter James, Josie Jo, Tina Douglas, Brad Smith, Matt Faisandier and others, thanks everyone for making the effort to document all the great stuff that happens in our beloved Unpopular Music scenes!
