THE PERFECT LOVERS! Second show since 2006, first since the reformation in October 2010. Legendary free noise project led by the unimitable perfect lover himself Jamie Hume (The Year Of The Sex Olympics, Auchenflower Red Light District, White Petunias) and backed by veterans of the local underground (WTEM, UOFA, Impromptulons, Sixteenth Century) — largely active between ’98 until 2006, played anywhere and everywhere (bars, squats, galleries, bars, lounge rooms, drive-ways, and I think there was a females-only show back there somewhere(?!)) ** they’d sometimes only stop when the power was cut or blown. It’s really hard to find anything in the way of their released material unless you “know a guy” but I’d bet there’d be a tape or two under many beds (please send them this way?) — check out this blog entry for a CDR upload anyway, hosted by a member of the group and includes some more information.
** – from J.H. (in comments), for the sake of record & historical accuracy:
“All TPL shows are/were open to all ages,genders & sexualities(it is the 21st century).What you heard was a half-remembering of the two ladies only giveaway tapes in 01 & 02.It annoyed the males no end – heh heh.:) – Jamie”

Hot cat-call-response punk sqwark with heavy emphasis on a simple rolling, stand-up-and-count drum beat in other words with a few Kleenex/Raincoats/Slits cards. Here tonight the bass guitar’s lead is fucked, the synth plays right over the top sometimes, the subtle & weird, wandering guitar which I had to really focus on… keeps everything interesting by creating messy, creased layers when it could very well have all been just another roadtrip down south if the gay neighbour found a house in Bali.

AKA Chelsea from Breinbeau. On his lonesome, sampler and mixer in front of a standing, dancing crowd. A fully realised set obviously with pre-recorded material spliced up skateboarding material but there’s breaks sub-genre skipping everywhere with your descriptions found in warp mart – the difference here (and I’m finding a lot of hash resin) is that it’s pulled off right, the audience calling out for more & the volume up after every song, and he doesn’t overstay his welcome rather keeping to a short 20 minute set that seems to fly right by & before the crowd can finish clapping I’m outside listening back to the recording.

Melodic hardcore-punk rawk with a distinct ‘pub rock’ attitude (I guess). Short set, ten minutes.
Eternal Soundcheck, once again, has some footage of this night which includes a clip of Greg Charles (6Majik9, Blonde Cobra, etc) performing a super-rare solo set of which made me really sad, slumped down into a lounge. The best part was at the last song of the set where the guitar-lead or input was being very temperamental and random, fuzz-laden chords were then fed into the amp but he worked with it, and damn it went well.
