They've had 8 pure gizz records in 5 years. All have been stompers, but until nonagon infinity they were barely known. I've been keeping a close eye on them since mind fuzz. It's amazing that they've come so far as a garage band, and I think that they have a ways to go still. In that sense, they are up and coming. Even if they have a huge discography their popularity can only grow as fast as word of mouth spreads. Their quality is the only major promotion they have.

I grew up in the New England area in NSW Australia and whenever I would go bushwalking I'd listen to this track and their other music. They capture the Australian mythos similar to Waltzing Matilda did a century ago. I always imagine myself being back sitting along a creek or river whenever listening to this or many of their other tracks. Australian to their core.
