Local Resident Failure

About Me

local resident failure are a punk rock band hailing from Newcastle, NSW who represent the old school ideal of Do It Yourself ideals and methods. Being playing with each other for 2 years, they are far from over and continue to build up their underground fanbase of dedicated punk rock idealists.
So far, they have released 3 EP's. The 1st entitled 'punk rockers anonymous' sold out of the original 500 unit pressing, which saw have of the unit sold over seas including Canada, USA, and mainly Japan. Also, this EP received extensive JJJ airplay on programs such as short.fast.loud and Home and Hosed, and also was reviewed in the BLUNT magazine and recieved a very good outcome. The 2nd EP entitled 'still sober after all these beers' also recieved JJJ airplay, which resulted in the boys becoming the JJJ Unearthed Artist Of The Week in the month of April 2009, with the single "trash the world" becoming the most popular out of the 4 tracks. This EP was also reviewed in the BLUNT MAGAZINE, and once again received a very good outcome. The boys also are featured in the latest PEEZINE in which there is a full page interview and a review of the EP scoring 88 out of 100. The 3rd EP was a internet only release entitled 'can't polish a turd' whihc saw the boys record live at the 301 studios in 1 day. There was originally 19 songs recorded but eventually it was cut down to 9, after they realised that they are not very good musicians, which is where the title of the EP was born.
The boys are currently planning to record their debut full length album, which will see lots of hilarious and serious issues in which the public has never witnessed before. So LOOK OUT for more news about this, and the announcement of a Australian Tour in the Summer of 2010.
