The Grates

The Grates are a two-piece band from Brisbane, Australia. Patience Hodgson (vocals), John Patterson (guitar) and Alana Skyring (drums) formed The Grates in 2002. The Grates have been lauded for their catchy songs and enthusiastic and energetic live show (Patience spends much of the show bouncing around, even while singing). They are frequently described as fun: "We just wanna have fun and hope other people do too." (Patience). Their sound has been compared to the Ramones, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Be Your Own Pet.

Special Branch

Special Branch is a joke project of Rupert from England who likes to make what is best described as bad europop. Using purely electronic sounds, poor quality disco music is created which will hopefully catch on in dodgy dance bars across Europe. So far this has been entirely unsuccessful. Have a listen and be cheered up by the bad drum beats and hilarious key changes. All songs are free as no-one will buy them.

Screamfeeder

Critically acclaimed Aussie outfit Screamfeeder have been pumping out their own unique brand of noisy indie-rock since forming in Brisbane, Australia in 1991. Throughout their colourful career, the band has toured with the likes of Sonic Youth, Pavement, and Sleater-Kinney.
