So then, what’s your name and what do you ‘do’ in the band?
Shaun Coller, I’m the drummer.
What do you reckon people will say you sound like?
Personally I’m not too sure who we sound like. Some have said Tool, Stone Temple Pilots, Karnivool.
What do you love about making music?
I just love playing it. It’s my escape from day to day life. Catch up with mates, have a few drinks and play/write music.
What do you hate about the music industry?
Pop, boy bands, Bieber et cetera.
If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be and why?
Shannon Larkin. I loved Ugly Kid Joe as a youngster, loved Amen growing up and Godsmack is my favourite band now. He’s been the drummer for all of them.
If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it and why?
I would pile as many pop/boy bands into an A380 as possible and have Bieber pilot the thing and shoot him out of the sky.
What can a punter expect from your live show?
You can guarantee that we’ll have to tell our lead guitarist to turn down. We always throw a few covers into our set.
What’ve you got to sell merch-wise?
Our latest EP Tellurium will be available at the gig plus a few copies of our Plasma EP, and T-shirts, hoodies and stubby holders.
TRENCH EFFECT are playing at the Brunswick Hotel on Friday February 12 with Arcane Saints, Lazarus Mode and Elusive.
