If you dont smoke weed, happen to be over 21, or have outgrown the consciousness of those who are, the Brisbane three-piece emerged as an outmoded cacophony of hedonistic cis-white privilege, shrouded in agonisingly tepid musicianship.

Horror My Friend opened the night, having previously supported Dune Rats on their last trip to Adelaide.

At the butt end of a looong Easter weekend, whereby majority of the local folk are either messy walking corpses, broke or actually have work in the morning, it would have been excusable for an independent Australian band to draw a drab crowd. They sold out two days before the date.
