Seems Twice was a post punk band formed out of Sydney in the late 70s. Like the bastard sons of early Wire and The Ramones, Seems Twice played incredibly short, fast and loud. Hardly ever more than a minute long, their songs defined a most useful kind of minimalism: an intro (sometimes), a verse, a chorus and, occasionally, an instrumental section with very little repetition. Live, it was blink, and you'd miss them, and you never wanted to do that. First gig was at The Grand Hotel 1979. They played numerous other one nighters, then unfortunately called it a day. Seems Twice recorded an EP titled 'No Plussed' on the Doublethink label with tracks as short as 16 seconds. John Douglas went onto early 80s jazz/punk combo Kill The King.
