How would you
describe your music?
Loud aggressive Cyberpunk with a very fat edge.
Which of your songs
best sums up your band and why?
A new track called Vena Cava. It's fast
and clangy with big guitars and FAT synths. It's about being vivisectioned
by an insane doctor with a surgical fetish.
If you had to cite
influences in your sound, be they emotions, other musicians or artists,
what would they comprise of?
Sonic Youth, Skinny Puppy, anger, hatred for television,
hatred of our society forcing us to become "beautiful battery
hens"...
Can you tell Sydney
Gothic what we can except from your live show? Any new tracks or
potential surprises?
two people going manic - fucking up our voices
with vocoders, bit crushers and modular distorters.
It's about letting it out and going wild, but mostly it's about
having fun.
We'll give the audience everything we have. Half the set will be
from the yet-to-be-released album
Do you think the scene
is growing or is the underground following becoming more vocal and
proactive in its support of darkwave artists and musicians?
Anyone who says the scene isn't flourishing or
has become less edgy has their heads jammed up their colon. New
bands are springing up, new clubs are starting, musician and artist
collectives are forming, new shops are opening - THE GOTH/CYBER/INDUSTRIAL
SCENE IN THIS COUNTRY IS GOING OFF! I think people are being more
supportive and seeing more bands.
If you had to sum 2005 for your band in a few
sentences, how would you do so and what are your aims and ambitions
for the rest of the year and leading in to 2006?
2005 = EXPLOSION.
We had the privilege of playing in several states to the best bunch
of people, we've met stacks of extremely cool people and have been
greatly inspired by them. We can't wait to start playing live again.
2006 = SUPERNOVA.
We're working on our new full length album now. We're been hugely
inspired by the other bands in the Crash Frequency collective. We're
looking forward to blairing our minced-up hyper-agro cyber FUCK-OFF
punk at people all over Australia...and maybe even overseas.
KRANK IT UP!
