Debut album 'My Love Is Cool' out now: http://po.st/MyLoveIsCool



FUZZ TOADS are a heavy, riff-fuelled outfit birthed and based in Perth, Western Australia.

Blending together the driving rhythms of desert rock, the ferocious hooks of punk, and the leaden weight of doom, FUZZ TOADS create auditory admixtures that twist the ear and scratch the skin of the listener.

With each track, vocalist Austin Rogers-Uff provides thoughtful, yet raw lyrics and melodies, while guitarists Michael McIntosh (MAGE) and Darcy Hanson-Glynn (MARIANA, GUTTERED) wrap them in grinding riffs and cacophonic chords. Binding these sounds together, bassist Nathan Howes (SLO.) and drummer Anthony Lomma (MAGE, SCATTERBACK) create pulsing waves of movement, guiding listeners towards a state of unsettling equilibrium.

With their sharpened jaws now opened wide, FUZZ TOADS present 'SMALL BUSINESS'.

An earth-shattering combination of driving, hook-laden tracks such as 'Cavalcade', and the stone-hard, cascading rhythms of 'Offal Tray', 'SMALL BUSINESS' offers up a disgustingly palpable auditory experience of mind-burning cacophony. 

Written and recorded in-house and without remorse, 'SMALL BUSINESS' is a jarring testament to FUZZ TOADS' ability to provide the melodies that nestle themselves in the listeners' ears, and the sheer power held to turn those ears to dust.
