2018 Sydney First Timer's alumni release their first tape! With members all across the new Sydney underground (Photogenic, Basic Human, Draino and more), they combine elements of proto-punk and card carrying rock 'n' roll for this powerful set of recordings. MUM's understated anger comes via rallies against productivity, the economy and the seedy, all covered in hooks and riffs that feel like stadium-era Ramones taking on a lo-fi mentality. Another great new band from the best city in the world!
Released June 10, 2019
Recorded by Sam Foster and Callum Chynoweth.
Mixed and mastered by Sam Foster.
Includes unlimited streaming of MUM demo

A fair old debut from this Perth punk outfit, though it's going back to late 2015. I discovered this via 2 releases from Cold Meat this year. It's wild. Gavin Hellyer
