about

MTS@@2 - Basic Human - Cassette

+

Rock band from Sydney, Australia. In the vein of forebears like The Stooges and Flipper, they turn to repetition and volume as beds for pointed lyrical attacks. There are hints of bands like Wipers or Agent Orange, more contemporary acts like Brainbombs or Watery Love, but if it's ever slavish in its tribute, then only a few are complaining. Bittered vocal attacks for accountability and authenticity; loathe thyself then loathe the big other!

'Cassette' is the first release from the Sydney four-piece made up of members of various local bands dead and alive, including: Daryl Prondoso (Phone, Onani, Sex Havers) on vocals, Mia Grosz (Crane Games, Family, Pee Wee) on guitar, Max Easton (BB & the Blips, Dry Finish, Point Being) on bass, and Del Lumanta (Video Ezy, Call Compatible, Sex Havers) on drums.

'Cassette' is out now on Meatspin, the second release on the Sydney-based record label.
