why do all the boys just pass you by?



The Shower Scene From Psycho were a post-punk band from the 80s Melbourne, AUS "Little Band" scene. Imagine lots of amateurs with funny electronics, keyboards & drum machines, most of which had never touched a musical instrument before. A lot of the bands only played a couple shows, with new bands being formed rapidly & super incestuously with members shifting to instruments they'd never touched before. It was twee and punk as fuck. This band reminds me a lot of the Cardiacs, if Kurt from Glee was their singer. Feedback Jack really rips up the guitar on this track, which is a cover of the 60s band The Seekers, who were also from Melbourne and the first Australian band to chart in the US & UK.
