There's lots of excitement building about the upcoming release of the debut album by The Chats (quite rightly too, it's going to be a great album) but another Australian band with a new release to get excited about are Aborted Tortoise (https://www.facebook.com/AbortedTortoise/). They've just released an ep (it'll be out soon on 7" via Goodbye Boozy Records but is streaming now) titled Scale Model Subsistence Vendor and it's bloody brilliant.
They're from Perth and line up with Connor Lane (Vocals), Tom Milan (Guitar), Charles Wickham (Guitar), John Peers (Bass) and Alex Patching (Drums). With a range of influences that takes in the likes of The Ramones, Dick Dale, The Mummies, The Saints etc, they play "stupid music for stupid people." Being honest though, the only stupid people are those that don't check the band out. It's snotty, irreverent punk music with garage and surf influences and should definitely appeal to those that are eagerly awaiting the aforementioned Chats lp. They formed in 2013 and you can find their releases, including the new one, here : https://abortedtortoise.bandcamp.com/
Expect energy, expect attitude, expect to be blown away. This is the lead track, it's titled Making A Mint...
