Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded on an isolated farm in Tasmania, the album possesses an intensely raw, live-in-the-room quality. Gareth Liddiard's abrasive vocal delivery dissects brutal moments of Australian history over discordant, blues-driven punk instrumentation. It is a vital document of modern Australian alternative rock.
