Formed in 2013, Sydney’s Scrotal Vice have created their own schizophrenic niche of ‘Extreme Post-Op Power Grind’ by throwing their favourite elements of grind, hardcore, metal & punk into a blender, adding an unhealthy dose of synth, putting on some stupid masks & keeping at least themselves entertained.
After 2 EPs and too many shows in their native Australia, Scrotal Vice decided to take their brand of testicular abuse to Asia, and in late 2015 embarked on a tour of Taiwan, Mainland China and Japan.
Since then, the mysterious Scrotal Vice has rarely been seen. There are rumors that one of them is living in China, playing in the Beijing fastcore band Struggle Session. There have also been reported sightings of another SV member on stage with Osaka hardcore legends Palm. In 2016 they briefly came back above ground for an Australia-New Zealand tour and to release their HUMANIMAL EP.
Now, in January 2018, Scrotal Vice will be coming back from obscurity to embark on a brand new Asia tour. The venues have finally scraped up all the gory mess that was left behind last time, and the audience has almost recovered from all the surgery that was required: the scene is set for Scrotal Vice to return. This time they will be mutilating 20 venues throughout China, South Korea and Japan, bringing a compilation CD featuring rare and unreleased tracks of bands they met on their last Asian assault.
This January 2018 is the MATING SEASON.
10 years in, Chinese hardcore band GAIWAER have continued to push through regardless of their never-ending lineup issues. And the band has arrived today with yet ANOTHER full length...
