I can now officially tick a lifetime goal off the list.
I have an outstanding collection of fond memories staying up late, smoking underage cigarettes (or in some cases banana peel and tea leaves), drinking stolen liquor cabinet booze and watching RAGE til 6am on the ABC. In fact RAGE reminds me a lot of a few old friends, namely Thea Bennett, Simon Frame, Jovita Boyd and Arran Hearn.. i know you dont know who they are, but they were important people in my upbringing… we watched rage every weekend, i had my first drinking and smoking experiences with them, we were primary school misfits, we loved Nirvana and the Smashing Pumpkins.. you know.. kid shit. I only really see one of them these days but my love is eternal.

Aaanyways.. i finally got a song on RAGE, my first filmclip White Sugar

It aired last Friday, i’m overjoyed.

Mathas , one of Perth’s rising stars of hip hop , will be performing a solo set for the Mojo’s masses. Laidback , intelligent and engaging, this mc is an imaginative story teller with a strong social commentary and unique outlook , he also has a very lovely singing voice .. not your average rapper..

Feisty New Zealand born mc, Mama Teesh, will be layin’ down some original joints over some gangsta beats ..having supported the likes of Hawaiian reggae superstar J Boog and NZ heavyweights Nesian Mystik, this lady is no stranger to performing in front of large thronging crowds. Bringing the noise and them some, this is one femme mc in full effect..

Bass culture dj’s about town and glitch hop breaks producers in between , Zev & Vu are 2 lads who specialise in the bottom end of the music spectrum.. performing their original glitch hop productions live , these two have masterminded a set that’ll make you work the floor like your life depends upon it. Guaranteed, no booty will be immune..

And kicking off the night .. the lovely but badass dj Endeva ! This lady will be pumpin’ up the funk and hip hop jams to get you all in the mood for some sweaty behaviour ..

Hussle Hussle !

“CRAYBAIT / SWAN DIVE” CD Launch

The Rosemount / Friday December 16

with special guests
MATHAS / THE SURE FIRE MIDNIGHTS / THE WEAPON IS SOUND
GRIM FANBANJO / & special performance by CARNIES WITH CANDY
+ THE BASHETTES AND THE BASTARD CHOIR

The Bible Bashers latest release ‘Cray Bait / Swan Dive’ gets its official launch at the Rosemount Hotel on Friday December 16th with a veritable variety of support acts running the gamut of genres – from perth hip hop wordsmith Mathas, man eatin’ full tilt rock n roll of The Sure Fire Midnights, dub-reggae blowout champions The Weapon is Sound and the mariachi version of Grim fandango – Grim Fanbanjo!

The Bashers are never short on tricks up their sleeve so for this one you can damn well expect to see the band to be joined on stage by THE BASTARD CHOIR and THE BASHETTES…

Also joining them once again will be Lady Chelsea Bunz and Black Betty of CARNIES WITH CANDY!

The ‘CRAY BAIT/ SWAN DIVE’ CD* will be available on CD on the night and includes a free mp3 download of the the track. Both tracks are a testament to the bashers pull-the-piss attitude and offer a unique perspective on the Australian life style while delivering a unholy dose of their punk, rock and swamp doctrine.

The tracks are part of a recording session done with guru Al Smith of Bergerk Studios. The next release “The Butcher Bird” will also feature tracks ‘Dole Day’ and ‘Buy Me A Drink’ is scheduled for Feb/march release to coincide with the bands QLD tour.

BIO
——————————-

THE BIBLE BASHERS have been peddling their filthy brand of blues-infested rock’n'roll since 2008. Their music is a deadly dose of Australian swamp rock, influenced by such iconic acts as Beasts of Bourbon, The Stooges and AC/DC. Famous for their audacious, no-prisoners live performances, they’ve been a persistent thorn in the side of the local music scene.

June 2010 saw the release of their eponymous EP, recorded by The Reverend Max Ducker of Cellar Sessions Studios. Featuring 7 sordid tales of downright depravity, Many of which finding their way on to local compilations. Self-funded, released & distributed, THE BIBLE BASHERS EP has been circulating your town like a bad batch of acid.

Since the release of their EP, these drunken gods of mischief have racked up a long list of noteworthy achievements and dubious honours. They released the notorious “Wine Haemorrhage” music video, hijacked Mongrel Country’s tour of Melbourne, printed two of their very own ‘zines full of their low brow lyrics n deviant art and shared the stage with Kim Salmon(Scientists), Six Ft Hick (QLD), The Stabs (VIC), The Dead South (VIC) and Buzz Deluxe (Canada). Not to mention a seemingly never ending schedule of shows over the years and a 2010 WAMI nomination for Best Punk Act.

Never ones to fall back on tired formula, they’ve spiced up their gigs with all manner of low down, low brow antics including; recruiting impromptu choirs (The Bashettes & The Bastard Choir) to join them on stage, handing out their own currency (Bash Cash) and even going so far as to fake their own break up (The Last Temptation of the Bible Bashers), an ingenious publicity stunt which is had fans and media alike completely fooled.

Ain’t no doubt, these holy rollers are here to kick-start a glorious new age of decadence n’ depravity.

SHABAZZ PALACES
(SUB POP / SEATTLE)

Support from:
Cosmo Gets (Paper Chain)
Mathas (The Community)
Ben M {move}

Plusssss!!
$3 TACOs by LACU CURACHA
DRINK SPECIALS AWL DAY

Bold, experimental and dark, Shabazz Palaces are a hip hop trio lead by Palaceer Lazaro, also known as Ishamel “Butterfly” Butler of Digable Planets. The project emerged onto the scene bearing a sense of mystery about them, much like the magnificent electro-synth taps and unhinged drum beats which lay amongst their cryptic lyrics. In 2010, the group gave a rare interview to Pitchfork, who named the band in their ‘Rising’ section, which names notable acts on the rise.

In Seattle, you can’t escape the hype surrounding Shabazz Palaces, and their first LP ‘Black Up’, released through the revered SUB POP Label in July 2011, although a long time in the making, is an astounding record proving them to be more than worthy. On ‘Black Up’ they still work as straight-up head knock rap and are as visceral as anything, making smart, tough music.

Often considered to be art-rap, Shabazz Palaces are forward thinkers who remain nostalgic for a sparer time and have worked to take Hip hop to an unearthed height. If Bedouins herded beats instead of goats and settled in Seattle instead of the Atlas Mountains, this would certainly be their album.

On January 15, Lazaro is bringing his retro futurist vision to The Bakery, performing LIVE for one night only with stellar local support from Cosmo Gets, Mathas and Ben M.

THE DEBUT FILMCLIP FROM MATHAS!

Please SHARE & LIKE!!

White Sugar is a little study of personal flaws, habitual behavior and the extreme consumption of heavily refined and processed foods in the western world.

The White Sugar filmclip is a swirling journey through a vicious candyland, were ripe raspberries and chico babies go for the throat and the product advertising of yesteryear repeats in a droning, endless loop. The only way forward is towards total zombification and a posse of buzzword angels on your shoulder lulling you to a lolly-encrusted catatonia.
