These Brisbane dudes keep the flannel flag of grunge flying. Combining the loud-quiet-loud dynamics of the Pixies with the crunch and sneer of The Vines, their songs bristle with killer hooks and buzzing guitars, topped with frontman Luke Boerdam's knack for shrieking stick-to-your-ribs anthems. A thick slab of sweaty catharsis, “Jesus Stole My Girlfriend” is the signature song from Violent Soho's early days, while “Like Soda” and their blistering cover of GOD's cult classic “My Pal” find them roaring out of the garage in a proto-punk blur.
