<p><span><span><span>- Those who work in the world of noise can, often, get away with utilising very small -if very loud- selections of sound and making these limited palettes do for a career’s worth of eardrum destruction.

Stiff Richards: DIG
<p><span><span>- Originally coming out in the infancy of last year, <em>DIG </em>is seeing a physical release through a German label well versed in rounding up gutter punks and a healthy love for the Australian brand of it.

The Melbourne crew embrace dirty rock'n'roll, unabashed by any clichés.
