The Meanies

The Meanies got together in Melbourne, Australia in 1989 and immediately made a name for themselves with a succession of sold out 7" singles on the Augogo label. They continued the relationship with Augogo (home to Australian groups like Magic Dirt, Scientists and Spiderbait) with the EP "Gangrenous" and the album Come 'n' See in 1991. In this time The Meanies had established themselves as one of Australia's pre-eminent underground rock bands through cultivating a huge all-age following and upsetting the rock establishment by breaking attendance records in the nation's capital cities.

Dirty Tactics

Philadelphia’s own Dirty Tactics have been steadily gaining notoriety as one of the most exciting, up and coming, young bands. Known for catchy melodies and sing along choruses that maintain pop sensibility but offer the intensity and vigor only seen in the punk rock underground. As the band grows, a much more obscure approach to the music has been evident. When combined with the lyrical content, and the cleaner twang of the guitars, the band falls into a unique category of music that is hard to find in recent years.
