Edit history

The initial fertilised embryo of Plastic. dates back to early 2005, but don't be fooled into thinking they're dinosaurs - With a new name, and new musical edge, this chipper young band of vagabonds is maturing with age like fine wine or fine cheese. The band has played several minor gigs as Ignore Alien Orders, and debuted their newfound stylez in front of hundreds of punters at Rock for Relief '06. Plastic. have something up their sleeves; the magic that happens when a group of good friends come together and rehearse regularly. The band has a wide, wide array of influences and can be both uncompromisingly brutal and gorgeously melodic. Wil (geetar, keybored, mouth), Sam and Jake (duelling guitarists), Matt (you can tell by the way he uses his walk he's a woman's man no time to talk; bass) and Angus (bass drums that wallop your intestines till your ass caves in) bring the rawk - you guys can please bring the money yes?

Following their two singles Baby Steps and Spider Fingers, Melbourne-based five-piece Plastic release New Hands, their anticipated debut album out through Spoilsport Records on September 29. Sitting somewhere between Deerhoof and Deerhunter, New Hands shines in its refusal to sit still. The record constantly veers away from any clear reference points, spiraling haphazardly into Plastic’s own idiosyncratic universe. Blending art-world sophistication with music nerd sensibilities and an indie-rock smirk, the album twists and convulses in the best way possible. As we journey with them through swirls of zigzagging melody, hiccupping grooves and erratic mood swings, New Hands becomes all the more intoxicating - revealing Plastic as fiercely compelling and thrillingly adventurous. New Hands is out September 29 through Spoilsport Records. Available digitally on all platforms.
