Usher in 2013 with this all-grind line-up! How many microgenres can we fit in one bill?
Sluicing together from the various gutters, dunny blocks and late-night chip shops of Newcastle (otherwise known as "H") are the molten-hot creeps ‘n’ freaks of 𝗕𝗢𝗗𝗬 𝗠𝗘𝗟𝗧.
Ratbags from OBAT BATUK and JOHN HOWARD (et al) playing raw and scuzzy old fashioned grindcore kissing the pimply bottoms of WARSORE, DAHMER, ROT and the like. So crusty that when they cut the crusts off their sandwiches they only eat the crusts!

With friends:
𝗣𝗜𝗦𝗦𝗕𝗢𝗟𝗧 — fuck you society noise n' grind
As the fourth or fifth or maybe even sixth band in the musical partnership sure to outlast even Lars and Jaymz; John and Simon’s (not to mention Ramzy whose riffs somehow even dwarf his hair) neck-snapping thrash-grind chopshop-metal monster PISSBOLT continues the path of blown-blood-vessel intensity, teeth-gnashing speed and whiplash inducing stops that has been stuffing the coffers of osteopaths across Melbourne for decades.
𝗘𝗦𝗣 𝗠𝗔𝗬𝗛𝗘𝗠 — cancel the future (synth) grind
The least arousing horny band to ever turn the stomachs and aggrieve the ears of Melbourne is the audial nightmare which is as welcome as Robo-debt: ESP MAYHEM. Motocross-klown redbull-addicted synth-grind fumbling (like a sweaty pubescent in their first bra-clasp experience) at integrating industrial metal, gabber and snarky ‘witticisms’ into their affronting din. Too cool for school but, unfortunately, not too cool to perform in a Red Dwarf shirt.
