MY DISCO
Three piece angular punk rock formed in the Melbourne summer of 2003. After the release of a limited cassette and two live performances, the band took a six month hiatus.

Released the Collapse Of An Erratic Lung 7inch in November of 2003 on their founded label Crashing Jets. Recorded live to 1inch analogue tape in a brunswick warehouse, the three songs are indicative of the bands raw and agitated sounds. Their ideas on structure and form are distinct, the recording is honest and captures the harsh and rigid sounds that is renowned in their live performances. Neil Thomason engineered the entire mess. Numerous tours of the Australian east coast were undertaken in support of the single.

The Language Of Numbers EP was released in September of 2004 - again on the Crashing Jets label - and is available on both CD and 10inch formats. Five songs recorded in what was once an old radio station, the band again recruited Neil Thomason as engineer. The songs continue to explore texture and time, furthering the bands ideas on non-linear structure and their musicianship, when compared to previous works. In support of the release, an extensive tour of the Australian east coast will take place throughout November and December, including the Belladonna DIY Festival in Wollongong NSW and the Meredith Music Festival in Victoria.

In 2005 the band will be undergoing a three week tour of South east Asia and six weeks in the United States Of America. Plans of another 7inch and an album will also be on the agenda.

GREY DATURAS
The Grey Daturas are a band from Melbourne, Australia. As a band their unique in the respect that their sound is hard to categorize, but if one has to be done, they are probably best described as an improvised / instrumental noise rock band.

Since their incarnation in August of 2001 the Grey Daturas have been celebrated as one of the loudest and most uncompromising live acts in Australia. As for their influences, they couldn’t be any more varied, ranging from such diverse acts as Sonic Youth, The Stooges, Earth, John Coltrane, Cluster, John Cage, Dark Throne and 70’s no-wave and post punk.

In the beginning, the Grey Daturas began by improvising live scores to 16mm film projections, however since losing their permanent film projectionist in 2002, the band has evolved into an entity entirely of their own, and now generally performs with out the help of a Cinematic setting.

As a band, the Grey Daturas refuse to use structured arrangements or rehearse, as they feel it becomes all too restrictive. So being the case, there live shows are where they are best represented, and I might add, that no two shows are ever alike. “It’s basically impossible to replicate the same show twice as when we play it’s all primarily improvised”. Whether it’s recorded or live, the Grey Daturas aim to create the most ear blistering and earth shattering art rock possible. For them, pushing their musical capabilities at maximum volume is their main priority.

Originally a three-piece comprising of multi-instrumentalists Bonnie Mercer (guitar), Robert MacManus (drums / guitar) and Robert Mayson (bass / drums), the Grey Daturas have recently announced the addition of a fourth member to their line-up, Dimitra Burolo (guitar / bass). Whilst the Grey Daturas have played with many guest musicians over the years, the addition of a permanent fourth member will now allow them to effectively explore there new rhythm heavy directions.

The Grey Daturas have released two mighty albums since 2001, the first being a self-titled CD on Black Mountain / Sonic Advisor (2002), and the second being the newly released album "Dead in the Woods" through Crashing Jets (2004). They have also released two live 3" CD EP’s on Diagnosis DONT! Recordings. Later in 2005 these two EP’s are scheduled to be reissued on vinyl by the Italian record label Qbico.

Touring has always been a main focal point for the Grey Daturas. They recently completed an Australian tour promoting their new album, and will be hitting the road again in February for another national tour, including shows with ISIS. From there, the Grey Daturas will embark on their first overseas tour, visiting Japan in April / May, and then U.S.A in May / June. There all set to tour there asses off with a view to releasing both albums overseas.
