Frenzal Rhomb

Plus guests.

Hold on to your hats and ice cream container helmets folks, Australian punk rock gurus Frenzal Rhomb have a bone to pick with you. And you. And that bloke over there. And you lot over in the corner updating your various social media applications.

After five years in the wilderness of the public conscience, the fearless foursome is back with album number eight, Smoko at the Pet Food Factory. Smashing into the Aussie ARIA charts to debut at #14, we can only hope and pray to a non-denominational spiritual entity that in addition to making the bands gigantic fan base happy as free range pigs in proverbial shit, it ruined radio jock, Frenzal Rhomb hater, Kylie Sandilands day.

Smoko at the Pet Food Factory was recorded with infamous Descendents and Black Flag stickman Bill Stevenson (Rise Against, NOFX) in the backwoods of Colorado, U.S.A. and finds Frenzal Rhomb flashing some new skills amid their old tricks, albeit a little older, shinier, and dare we say it, wiser. With Jason Whalleys loaded lyrical barbs front and centre, Lindsay McDougalls fiery guitar shredentials on point, the punk rock Jason Newsted, Tom Crease on bass, and the metrognomic Gordy Forman brining up the rear, Smoko at the Pet Food Factory is Frenzal Rhomb at their very best.

Doing their part for the community, proceedings kick off in informative fashion with the avian aversion anthem Bird Attack a song first aired to the unwashed masses at the bands triumphant No Sleep Til festival appearances in Dec 2010. Its all systems go from there as Frenzal Rhomb continue spreading their patented bird flu-free vitriol far and wide; keyboard fascists, clergy, celebrities, junkies, politicians, shitty friends and garden variety a**holes all coming under attack from human dreadlock Jay Whalley.

For those of you with a hankering to taste this finely marinated rocknroll delicacy in the live setting, fear not that old age, medical problems and attractive odds at the local greyhounds will keep Frenzal Rhomb off the stage. With a stellar track record for causing absolute pandemonium at any show they play; be it inciting huge circle pits, destroying piatas of political leaders or drinking every other bands beer; trust the brand you know Frenzal Rhomb.

Frenzal Rhomb's modern day classic "Smoko At The Pet Food Factory" is out now.
