Real Bad Music is a venue/squat/store/’eternal jam’ down on the Magic Mile, Moorooka. There’s been events happening there since, oh I’d say since 2009(?) but it’s got a lot more attention now and some people think it’s just popped out of nowhere. Undone Zine is a local… zine focused on good punk and rock’n'roll. There’s a massive line from what you’d believe. They’ve been putting a few parties/shows down at Real Bad; this is the third as such, now out in the car-park as opposed to the tiny shop. Free food, cheap beer, tapes/records/cd-rs and VHS/DVDs.
Foreign Stiffs is improvised, a loose & damaged mess and tonight featuring members from Cured Pink, Old Growth Cola, X-Wave, Unique Oil Free Air, xNoBBQx – sounding not unlike the more celebratory blown-out chaos that a few members are capable of when wandering with SSS & played with such staggering volume/pitch this here recording of mine is raw-as-fuck as I continually reached for the volume dial; speaker cones bend, contort, crack as feedback mounts, shouted vocals become incoherent noise and the horn clips out but the drums & 2x bass push the ‘two’ movements along steadily to a drawn-out closure with vox & sax dancing out front.
