Throttle

Resistance is Futile

About Me

If the Replacements mated with the Distillers, then met the Meices for coffee, & did tequilla shots with the Clash & Ramones, this could be their offspring...Spinkle in a dash of The Scabs, The Rocks or any other classic Oz punk from the late 70's, early 80's and you have ' Throttle', combining all this and more into a unique blend of old school punk and messy guitar rock wizardry.Coming together from Minneapolis, Sydney-Australia and wherever it is the ' Cubs' come from, Throttle have found a way to beautifully meld all thier influences into 3 minute smouldering melodic punk-garage rock heaven. Not for the fient of heart...Throttle kicks straight into high gear and stays there.
