The Black Watch
Formed in Santa Barbara in 1988, the black watch have released 13 CDs of highly literary, catchy indiepop; as Andy Gill of Gang of Four recently said in The Independent UK, "Los Angeles has not produced a band like this in a long time; they have, in singer/songwriter John Andrew Fredrick, an artist capable of both My Bloody Valentine miasma AND Nick Drake quietness. Pity that they are relying on a tiny label out of Dorset UK to get their latest fine CD, "the hypnotizing sea," heard."

The Henchmen
In response to the rise of reality television & the emerging ban on all culturally seditious behaviour, a psychobilly pop band called The Henchmen began hiring out halls & warehouses, putting on seditious showcases of reckless abandon disguised as 'parties'.
At first nobody came. even their closest friends and family disassociated from this reckless band of loners & outcasts. So in 2004 they moved from the relative safety of Canberra and spread their 'party' across the national landscape, performing everywhere from Brisbane to Adelaide.
