About Me

Around since the dawn of time and accused of no longer existing. We do. Three full albums, a mini-album, some singles, four compilations and the 12th anniversary re-issue of Manilow out now.... Bring it on. We have been in or played something in/with these bands: Sneeze, Godstar, Headache, Jupiter, Bambino Koresh, the givegoods, Lemonheads, Ben Lee, Manu Trust, Tofu Cock, Carton, seventeen and many more. Stick around, we'll tell you more....
You can also check out the clip for Impractical Joke over at YouTube right now. If we can locate the DVD of the Hopetoun show, we'll whack a live thing up too.
Catch the Hot Potato clip over at YouTube . Hopefully have more up soon...
NEW Smudge t-shirts ARE AVAILABLE! This little sucker in classic rock'n'roll black with white print is a tribute to our biggest German fan (outside of Mirko and Seja from Sekiden who we thanks endlessly for the translation help!). Head to the bloggoshpere for details on sizes etc and blah. Only $20 + P&H!
MANILOW the re-issue is available now featuring supplemented artwork including liner notes from Nic Dalton (Godstar, Sneeze, Plunderers, Lemonheads....) and fan contributions as well as a bonus disc of 17 previously unreleased live and demo tracks.....
