We are 3 musical warriors from Melbourne, whose weaponry includes guitars, drums, keyboards, samplers, computers, and our own foul little 20 year old mouths. A kind of guitar-heavy, semi-electronic, experimental rock. A rock of cinematic proportions, jam packed with pounding rhythms, grotesque riffs, ambient soundscapes, reverb-drenched vocals screaming from the fiery pits of hell, growing epics inspired by a million bands (such as The Cooper Temple Clause, Radiohead, NIN, Aereogramme, Mogwai, The Faint, Joy Division, Nick Cave, Sigur Ros, Black Sabbath...). When performed live, it invokes awesome rock god poses, the extreme cranking of volume, and being very, very exciting. Put it on. Although we have all played in various bands together for years, we have only formed this band recently. We are soon to begin recording our first EP. So yeah... put it on.
