SOULSCRAPER - Heard it all before 1992

Soulscraper combined samplers and audio loops played live with acoustic drums and aggressive punk influenced guitars. The sound was influenced by alternative,industrial, goth, punk, and dance music, combined with an Australian Pub Rock live music sensibility.

The band released two EP’s, “Heard it all before” (1992) and “Neo-Anarcho” (1993) and both received considerable national airplay on radio station Triple J.

The band split in 1993 and members went on to form and play in many bands including bands such as Insurge.

THE MOCKERS - Culprit and the King 1985

The Mockers were hugely successful in an early-mid 80s New Zealand, obsessed with then-current crop of British pop. The band initially formed in 1979 as The Ambitious Vegetables, with line-up of Gordon Costello, Andrew Fagan, Gary Curtis and Charlie Mannell who were all at Rongotai College together. Their original songs were written by Gordon Costello when he was aged approximately 10. Gary Curtis wrote many of their songs as well and continued on to write most of the music for The Mockers. Sadly it's one of the best, but sadly ignored records that came out of NZ.
