60 Seconds With… Sarge & The Nuked

Define your genre in five words or less:

Not worth paying to see.

Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?

Music played over a saloon brawl that involves Carl Perkins and his mates fighting against Bad Brains and their fans.

Describe the best gig you have ever played.

That’s hard to say because we love playing so much. For now, let’s say Karova Lounge in Ballarat with O.D. Tommy Dogs, Spacejunk and Swhat. It was a privilege to meet new people both on and off stage while also catching up with old friends and family, as we used to live in that direction. Not to mention we had fun misbehaving at a weird motor inn.

Tell us about the last song you wrote.

It was probably The Call of Pazuzu. With this we aimed at going real dark as well as keeping it fast like our others. It’s very interesting as well I think, because it changes a lot throughout it and has a very good blend of the genres we like listening to.

Do you have a pre-gig ritual? If so, what is it?

Eat some sort of junk food, regret it, set our instruments up, wish we’d spent more time doing that, have a Jager-bomb (yum), then trip over when first getting up on stage.

If your music was a chocolate bar, which one would it be, and why?

It’d have to be Peppermint Crisp, because after the experience, you are left feeling ‘cool.’

Catch SARGE & THE NUKED at the massive Nevermind the Warp’d Tour at The Brunswick Hotel, this Saturday December 6.
