Define your genre in five words or less:
Stoner sludge.
So, someone is walking past as you guys are playing, they then go get a beer and tell their friend about you… what do they say?
It was cold, tasty and I’d like 12 more.
How long have you been gigging and writing?
About three years.
What has been your favourite gig you’ve played to date?
Simo’s birthday last weekend. It was a lush grassy field surrounded by trees and hills and the police came.
What inspires or has influenced your music the most?
Seeing bands deliver inspired, electrifying live performances.
What do you think a band has to do these days to succeed?
They’d have to define success first. If they successfully define success they’ll find they’re quite successful at succeeding.
Do you have any record releases to date? What? Where can I get it?
We have an album called Slab which we released in 2012 and you can digitally download from Bandcamp. We’re launching our second album Primordial Soup this Friday night.
Why should everyone come and see your band?
We don’t think everyone should because section of the population probably won’t like us. The ones who like loud heavy rock music should come and see us because that’s what we play and getting out and seeing new live music is a very worthwhile thing to do with your time.
OLMEG launch their new album Primordial Soup at the Brunswick Hotel this Friday December 12.
