A tight three piece, originally influenced by The Jam, who mutated quickly into a furious (in more ways than one) post-punk-prog-metal outfit. Intricate bass and guitar lines, hooked together by terrific drumming, were played with intensity and volume and overlayed with surprising two part harmonies. If sometimes, possibly, too tricky for their own good, at least they were an antidote to the three chord thrash. They released two singles '' Somewhere / Melbourne Red'' on their own label in 1980 and ''Endless Sleep / The End'' on the Au Go Go label in 1981.
