The Antipoet Band Manifesto:

The way this band works is we only have a short rehearsal shortly before each gig.

We have no full songs, no verses/choruses or formulated ideas - just a few improvised hooks and riffs to act as a bed of music/sound to free-form anti-poet lyrics - which may manifest as songs during the performance.

The band consists of Allan Boyd (the Antipoet) - frontman of Blac Blocs on the mic and occasional guitar, with backup by his partner "Subaware"; Steve Buddah is the drummer; Ray (the armed poet) Grenfell from Blac Blocs pumps the basslines; Richard (willterra) Eames provides guitarscapes - and Kevin Gillam plays cello...

There is a FACEBOOK EVENT if you wish to confirm or find out more...

cheers

blac blocs supporting propaghandi

Come and vent...

"Canada’s Propagandhi are finally dragging their politically charged punk rock arses back to Australia. From their earlier roots in the punk and skate punk tradition to their more recent heavier, hardcore thrash-influenced sound, this band has a reputation for their energetic live finesse. It has been 11 years since they last turned themselves loose upon us and the anticipation for their return is now over..."

Yeah - and local rascals 3 Days Later and Blac Blocs support Propaghandi this Weds night at Capitol...

Blac Blocs CD Launch

My rock band - Blac Blocs is launching a 7 track CD this Saturday at the Hyde Park Hotel Frontbar.

We recorded and mixed it ourselves over the last few months. Adem K and Laurie Sinagra mastered it.

"Blac Blocs, Perth's freshest direct-action dirt-rockers are currently recording their much awaited debut 7 track CD.

Formed in early 2007, the subversive and boisterous 4 piece have since graced the stages of most Perth original band venues - as well as solid backyard touring schedule with multiple encounters with the WA Police.

Supporting the likes of Melbourne's Witch Hats, Black Level Embassy, Curse ov Dialect, Elf Tranzporter and too many local acts over the last year, the boys are sphincter-tight and ready to spit bits with the best bitches.

Described as "Midnight Oil meets Fugazi", Blac Blocs' unique hard-edged post-punk sound and complaint-rock poetics have been captured for consumption on a CD to be released on August 23rd at the Hyde Park Hotel Frontbar..."

There's a myspace and a band website.
