Overview

'Fuzz' and 'scuzz' are just two words that seem to get thrown around a lot when it comes to Eat Skull. The four piece band from Portland have been disguising their pop songs with scratches, screams and noisy feedback ever since their debut in 2008. Since then the Lo-fi group, made up of members from previous U.S acts Gris Gris and Hospitals, have been seducing cool young things into dancing frantically at their live shows.

Eat Skull are now bringing their scuzzy, fuzzy dance frenzy down under, and there to join in on the fun will be Brisbane band Slug Guts. Combing lyrics that talk of country hick tales from north Queensland with rhythms that subscribe to swamp blues and surf styles, Slug Guts are a gutsy (pardon the pun) Brisbane four piece that are going to be heard whether you like it or not. But chances are you'll probably like it anyway.

Don't let the names of these acts scare you. There won't be any devil worshipping or eating of skulls or actual guts from slugs here. It will all be fairly PG rated, skinny-jean wearing hipster fun.
