The Pugs came out of their corner swinging, in early 2008. The lightweight acoustic duo soon grew into a heavyweight folk rock band. After a few near knockouts due to member losses, The Pugs collapsed back into their corner. But after a stirring training montage worthy of the Rocky franchise, they've spat out the blood, wiped off the sweat and refused to throw in the towel.

Stepping into the ring we have; Ben (vocals/guitar), Ashleigh (double bass/vocals), Laurent (banjo/concertina), Linda (drums) and Josh (vocals/guitar/mandolin/accordion).

2009 sees these pugilists back stronger than ever with 5 members, 9 instruments, a spit bucket-load of tunes and ready to fight once more.”

The two songs are from their first (unfinished) 6 track EP. It will be called 'Barnburner' and should be out sometime in the next 6 months.

2) Sled (Brisbane, Queensland)

Sled is producing an eclectic mix of punk rock based on a variety of influences. You'll notice the Celtic nuances in a few of the tunes and an otherwise distinct sound catagorised by who knows what.”

Sydney City Trash is a Sydney-based Country/Punk band. Three of its six members grew up in the small town of Tamworth in rural New South Wales, which is also Australia's Country Music Capital and their country roots are frequently reflected in the band's lyrics. The band has been described as the "saviours of Australian Country," and is widely respected for its "bitingly satirical and dense storytelling lyrics

Vocalist and Lyricist Mitch Hell was raised in Tamworth in rural New South Wales. After moving to Sydney and fronting various punk, straight edge, hardcore and Oi! bands he met up with former high school mate and fellow Tamworth survivor Paddy 'toots' McHugh in spring of 2001. The pair wrote their first song the now famous 'Whiskey in the Sun' in the early 2002 and recorded several incarnations of this song over the next year mostly as a joke, poking fun of where they were raised. However it wasn’t until 2003 with the addition of another Tamworth survivor Matthew 'Browny' Brown the band really started taking shape.

The three Tamworth boys dragged in whatever musicians they could find and busked on the streets of Tamworth during the 2003 Country Music Festival, playing mainly covers by Merle Haggard, David Allen Coe, The Descendents and The Clash. After the festival and inspired by the thrill of performing the boys went into 'Hilltop Studios' in Tamworth to record a demo with the idea of getting a real band together.

The demo worked and by mid 2003 the boys had recruited a drummer. All six of the boys rehearsed and in late 2003 went back in to 'Hilltop Studio' to record their first EP the now legendary "Classic Cuntry Hits."

Over the next year the boys worked hard playing any gig going and writing as much as possible. They became inspired by old Australian bush and folk bands such as Redgum, Roaring Jack and the Dingo's. They were also heavily influenced by Celtic punk bands such as the Pogues and Flogging Molly. All these influences were used and shaped to make the bands first full length album “Once Upon A Time in Australia” which was released on Scott Mac of Toe to Toe's label Sold Our Souls

The boys went in to record at the 'Brain Studios' in Surry Hills, Sydney in early 2009 for their upcoming release. Rumor has it this release is a return to the more country sound.”
