I can't believe they did not get huge in the US! Perfect sound at the perfect time! Amazing look and feel! Something must have gone wrong somewhere...
a friend of mine from Oz sent me this on cd single and i loved it! it had a foto in the cover taken by one of the band members, a very cool idea! first time seein the video and lovin it!
@seven133 yes absolutely......the old hunter thompson quote rings very true in so many bands from here. thank god bands have more options now than the big labels
Tubby was the drummer when they were still Killing Time. Syd Green is the drummer in this clip. The other guitarist was Chris Collins who took Jed Starr's place. He went on to form Starworld and played in Fester Fanatics.
I went to another show on that tour. Tumbleweed opened for Kim. He(Kim)got booed off, then Rollins came out on stage preach'n respect for the Surrealists.
I think the lead singer for Mantissa and his sister were offered jobs to work in the Whitsundays by Ray Martin.
Dude I remember hearing this on 2RRR FM in Sydney in the late '80's along with Mortal Sin, Slaughterlord, Godspeed, Boss...wow man! a trip back in time!!!! AWESOME 5 stars!!!! :-)
This song has a killer guitar hook .... awesome stuff.
