Loud, messy and fantastic... the Splatterheads rocked. Totally under-rated. Used to see them tour to Adelaide when they were still the Lompoc County Splatterheads and wore that crazy make-up. Sly was one of the best rock frontmen I've ever seen - great voice, guitar and presence. Totally agree that Bot The Album is one of Australia's best-ever rock LPs. Played it heaps and still have it.
@XMRPhilosophyX ,the Powder Monkeys,Hoss,Asteroid B6-12,Bored! all sound similar,all the bands that played together in that time,basically anything australian pub/punk rock from the 90s is awesome,forget last response
@sassy666mc I know! I always like to think i respect peoples right to choose their own tastes etc..but that is just utterly irrelevant when it comes to the Splatterheads! "luvonya" as Sly Faulkner would say x
@Pbcat666 Melbourne Show 17/09/2010 absolutely fuckin awesome , still blissed out , made me feel 15 years younger , intense wild passionate heart and soul .
yep they were the best band to come out of Sydney man i was lucky to have seen them on numerous of occasions.. i heard they are doing a reunion gig in September damn i am in UK if i had money i would fly back for it that's how good they are... those guitar riffs, sly's voice and the splatter shows were wicked....
@natalievesna Hey , in about a week times Sly is putting Splatter heads T shirts and a C.D (recorded on European Tour ) on Ebay , Show at the TOTE booked out absolutely fucking awesome ,
i have been thinking about it and SPlatterheads were one of the best bands to come out of Sydney. I was lucky to have seen them on numerous occasions, i still play there album to death... fuck i would love to see them again, app doing reunion in sydney Sept but i live in UK if i had the money i would fly back to see it... thats how much i dig them...it's the guitar riffs, brass instruments and i never knew the ginger guys name but his voice is so powerful...
the best band ever,, i love them.... i used to see them a lot at the landsdowne... i would say they were my fav band ever....and i have to see them again ...p
they were great to say the least favourite song would have to be filthy mile from the only alblum i have lompoc county,if anyone has please post that one,i would my self but that's the only song that's got a few bump's in it cheers wicked band.matt.
They should get back together for the next Monster Session show.....them and Massapppeal were the missing links but it was still a heck of a show...Nunbait were the poo!
Hi ,Yeah Splatterheads were originally a Sydney band but loved playing in Melbourne . Sly now lives in Melbourne , he is still in contact with Christo . Whenever he can he still writes , I would love nothing more than see a live Splatterheads show . there was some talk about a small possiblility that it could happen .
thanks for posting these clips... we looked a couple years ago and there was nothing... I am good freinds with Chris "David" Fletcher (guitar) and its prety funny to see ol fletch with his face painted and acting scary.... hes still playin music, in fact we jsut finished jamming. (*feels honoured to play with the "big guy")
Man, I had some great times seeing this band! Thanks for posting. The live clips of this were from a cracker of a gig at the Vic on the Park. Thats me headbanging on the far right of 2:09 - 2:12 : )
Yep great band, saw them as often as they played in Melbourne. First time I saw them was as a 17yo when they(I think) supported the Butthole Surfers at the Old Greek theatre. They did a splatter show, it blew my mind.
Ebay.. Secondhand and Pawn Shops.. theres heaps around still just gotta look , old school style.. as in get off the computer lol.. they pop up on Ebay every now and then.. Its Bot the album.. and you can find two of their Lps on one CD called ink of a mad mans pen.. and several singles around vinyl and cd.. Even Sly dont have copies of most of em lol.. Cheerz
God This band is Badass! I like it soo much. I can't find their stuff anywhere tho!!!! Records stores dont sell em, itunes, or amazon doesn't, and I can't even find it on the net anywhere. There isn't even info on these guys. I coudln't even get a track list from an album, the most i know is that they have one record called DOT, THE ALBUM. If anyone knows where i can find this album or could possibly send it to me, pleeeeeeease let me know. thanks
The most eceletic and maybe talented of all the DOGMEAT crew! Stop holding out and someone put some live footage up here for chrissakes PLEASE!!! especially INK OF MADMANS PEN era. this band were sensational. totally underrated.

Check out BOT for one of the best aussie rock albums ever!

ok, PeteTheStud , I had lots of Splatterheads
footage, since I shot it for a tv show called Underground Rockit, in the mid 90's.
Many of the tapes have broken up, but I'll see what I can dig out.
