How do you feel Melbourne Music Bank will best benefit your goals?
The prize for the winner is amazing, that would be a huge help in terms of being granted opportunities that would otherwise be a little further down the track for us. In the short term it’s good to be recognised for the music we’re making.
What sort of impact are you hoping your music will make on listeners/other music artists in the world?
We want listeners to feel like they have no inhibitions and they can do whatever the hell they want. They can get angry and excited and flail around like animals and we’ll join in too.
What themes do you want to explore in your music?
We love the juxtaposition of loud and noisy guitars and rhythm paired with more melodic and ethereal vocals that have a tendency to swell up and explode during some of our songs. The songs are mostly written about real life experiences. Love, partying, rejection, debauchery – all of that.
Why do you think it’s so difficult to break into the international music circuit?
For a band to really succeed it requires a perfect storm of talent, willingness to commit, perseverance, luck, and chemistry between the people who are a part of it. The additional difficulty in finding people to collaborate with who share these traits, means forming and maintaining a great band is a delicate balancing act.
