SUMMARY: An oi/punk three piece who played shows in Sydney in the mid-'90s. The band recorded their demo in Martin Jennings's garage in Lilyfield on an old 4-track. At least one song was later re-recorded by Jennings's next band, Groin.

 

ORAL HISTORY:

MARTIN: We were a three piece with Rick on bass from San Francisco, he went on to join a rockabilly band called Full Fathom Five. Marco on drums, a Chilean who also played in his brother's metal band Dark Order. All our songs were originals except for a Misfits cover we did. We played Feedback and the Sando and the Bexley Inn with bands such as Spilt Milk, Stalin's Organ, Bore, World War 24, Chaos, and Speedball. We always started with "What night is it, Rick?" and the crowd would join him in yelling "It's Friday night!"
