Terrible Truths - Self Titled
2015 Naarm / Melbourne queer post punk on Bedroom Suck Records. My favourite oz band at the time of that era. At the time it was a 3 piece - 2 girl back and forth vocals and a drummer. They were excellent.
This was sadly their only LP with a handful of 7 inches prior. They'd been kicking around for a good few years before this was released.
There was a wave of Australian post punk / Garage Rock with a particular unique Australian suburban sound between 2010 onwards. The new pub rock. Think Scott and Charlene's wedding. Although like most of that scene, there were a lot of male dominated bands. Terrible Truths bought a refreshing mix to the scene.
I was inspired to pop this on this morning after having dinner with my friend last night who is good mates with the guitarist. In true Tarntanya / Adelaide fashion there is 6 degrees of separation as I went to school with the bass player.
