The Postures

since forming in mid 2006, the postures quickly marked out their own unique sonic territories. the line-up of michael (guitar, primary hollering, baritone guitar), michael (drums, bass), and jeremy (guitar, synth, auxillary hollering, drums) have an anything-goes approach to song writing, incorporating elements of post-rock, metal, disco, kraut-rock, doom, punk, and no-wave, with lyrical inspiration drawn from disparate subjects such as the nature of insanity, the edge of the known universe, the apocalypse, and charleton heston.

Stitched Vision

Stitched Vision is Jason Campbell, once global roamer now fringe-dwelling citizen of Newcastle, Australia. His pedal-heavy synthscapes are neither nostalgic nor futuristic, but rather channel the current plight of his city of residence, unfolding as explorations of urban decay and cultural regeneration. Understated melodies sheathed in white noise – pitting the organic against the industrial – mark Campbell’s work and come to symbolise Newcastle’s attempts at rejuvenation beyond its steelworks and coal exporting harbour (the largest in the world).

The Stabs

Formerly called Jodi Moore as a tribute to an acquaintance who didn't want the honour of seeing her name in the street press, The Stabs acquired their new name not long after starting to play irregular gigs at small Melbourne venues around 2003. They have the honour of clearing the 'Airport Lounge' at Monash Uni faster than any other lunchtime act, with only three diehards ending up braving the wall of noise for the whole set.
