"Sydney Punk Directory"

Concept and original words by Hungry Dave (May 2006/7)

Part 6:  1991 to 1993

The Sydney scene continued into the 90’s but it was said that the Sydney punk  had seen better days, re: lack of venues, a lot of people getting out of punk and wanting to play more complicated or hip music like techno-metal or slap-funk or whatever. None  the less a few bands kept it going.

Note: Hard Ons, Mass Appeal, S.U.X., World War XXIV,  Queen Anne’s Revenge, Lethal Overdose, Rocks, Hellmen, Splatterheads, Ceilbate Rifles etc were all still going at this stage.

This was a Hardcore / Street punk band that come out of  1991 with the motto “Fuck Seattle this is Sydney”  The band had a tough street punk attitude and musically were coming from U.S. Hardcore bands like  MINOR THREAT, BLACK FLAG & AGNOSTIC FRONT.  The band became ‘mainstays’ of the Underground punk / HC Scene throughout the 90’s and clocked up quite a few releases.  - 2007 - Billy Hughes and Scott Mac have reformed the band.
