YENDO BRUUC @ Hotsh*ts - 30/07/2016

Fundraiser for FLOWERGRAVE COLLECTIVE PHILIPPINES

Heaps more info about them and the gig here - https://www.facebook.com/events/1741178252836452/

-------------------

Looking forward to our first official gig with YENDO BRUUC!! We're on first at 4:00pm.

YENDO BRUUC is Yendo (AKA Rod Cooper) on yet-unnamed noise instrument & snare-ified vocals, and Bruuc (AKA Spasmoslop) on Mr. Putin noisebass & broken-speaker vocals. It's kinda halfway between noisecore and harsh noise... no drums, just tight, dense blasts of harshness and some mechanical/industrial vibes... it's odd but we think it works!

Cheers to Nathan for putting us on and Hotsh*ts & friends for hosting and continually supporting good causes!!

WANKOSLOP Japan line-up!... we leave mid-April...  over the last month or two I've been working with Rod Cooper to make a travel-size subsonic noisebass for me to take on the tour and it turned out absolutely amazing. Two bass strings and three springs, stainless steel neck, Fijian Mahogany body... Rod & I developed the design together and he did the construction and science cause he's a fuggin GENIUS... this thing sounds utterly MASSIVE... but is also really versatile and does subtle ambient stuff very well too! Thank you Rodney!!

HOLY BONER @ Holdings - 16/02/2014

Come see people yelling over other loud noises!

Cantankerous Records Presents This:

Dead Boomers: Launching their new 7" vinyl out on Iron Lung Records and their new cassette "Outcalls" out on Cipher productions.
Punshing power electronics with a punk tinge...

SPLIT TEETH:Lightning speed power violence; 100% brutal.

Holy Boner: All star noise/grind lineup for maximum brutalitiy.

Velvet Whip: Self doubt, intelligence, paranoia, urban problems, claustrophobia, ugliness, animosity, and power.

Inmost Night: Punkened black metal to open your mind!


Live at Holdings
492 Bell Street Pascoe Vale South
3pm Sunday 16th February 2014
Free.
All Ages.
Free tea & coffee.

Plenty of merch available; bring your hard earned bread and squander it on some dated formats...

"If you are coming by car there is no parking on Bell Street, but you should be able to find some in York Street which is just around the corner. The last stop on the 55 tram at Bell Street will get you nearby. Holdings is about a 5 block walk west from there. If you can get to Bell or Coburg Station the 513 bus will take you pretty much across the road. Just ask to get off before Reynolds Parade. Holdings is across the road from a 7-Eleven (which is on the corner of Reynolds & Bell) if you need a landmark."

VERY EXCITED for this - our first gig with the new HOLY BONER line-up...  

Brad Smith - Drums/grindcore vocals
Nik Kennedy - Modified bass/goregrind vocals
Rod Cooper - Handmade guitar/noise
Omad - Noisecore vocals/noise

We've been jamming and doing some recordings (coming soon)... and I reckon with Rod's demented guitar and Omad's harsh Arse Destroyer-ish vocals added to the me & Brad "rhythm section" it's sounding more brutal/intense/noisy and chaotic-but-tight than ever before! 
TOTAL DEVASTATION NOISECORE!!!!
