Sausage Chopper started their Jackass/backyard wrestling/hardcore outfit in 1997, playing original old school punk. Stage antics included undies over tights, hitting each other with hub caps and dress wearing. Their first shows gained interest from street kids and punk fans. Andy (the crazy singer/screamer) was originally with a band called Snappahead, where he first got a reputation locally for being an energetic front man. The band gained a small following and recorded a demo which went to #1 on local Brisbane radio 4ZZZ and was 2nd runner up for best demo in Hot Metal magazine. The band eventually found its feet playing speed shredding hardcore/metal with heavy brake downs. As the band progressed, the stage antics increased to include a range of props such as tables, car bumpers, oven trays, mattresses, computers, telephone books, street signs, answering machines, video players and dog food, all of which never survived a show in one piece. This gained the band a reputation often
