The Transatlantics

Based in Adelaide, South Australia, The Transatlantics are an eight-piece deep funk and soul outfit inspired by the great soul performers of the late 60's and early 70's. The Transatlantics came together in 2007 born of a shared love for gritty old vinyl, cheap guitars and quality barbequed meats. Described by NME as "a young, white Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings," The Transatlantic's sound invokes the grainy warmth of Southern American Soul and the rhythmic grunt of classic James Brown-era funk.

Bullet Ridden

BULLET RIDDEN is a hardcore punk band also taking influences from crust, metal and the horrendous shortcomings of modern life. We are: Chris on guitar(ex bombblastmen,varukers,violent arrest), Andy on bass (who also sings for The Rejected) Karl on drums(ex black eye riot) and Martin on vocals (also singer for Warprayer). In essence the project was born out of the split of The Reckoning. But the desire to make you deaf has spurred us on. We don't claim to be doing anything ground breaking but we feel special about the noise we make and couldn't give a toss for money or popularity.

Bitter Sweet Kicks

Bitter Sweet Kicks are a self-described "dirty rock n' roll" band from Melbourne, Australia. Influenced by proto-punk (The Stooges) and old school rock music (New York Dolls, AC/DC), their sound is a mix of raucous rock rhythms and rollin' guitar licks. Helmed by the gravelly rasp of Jack Davies (vocals), the rest of the band is anchored by Johnny Kicks (Bass Guitar), Chris Taranto (Guitar), Brendan Charlie (Guitar) and Joe Cunliffe (Drums). http://www.myspace.com/bittersweetkicks
