RUST Sydney Street Punk

Formed mid 2005, RUST feature ex members of some of Australia's most prominent past punk rock bands (Crucified Venus, Crankcase, Rule 303, Gravel Rash, World War 24) and have fused all this together to make a front foot forward, rock and roll rust bucket road train of a band that has no shortage of talent, passion and experience.

Listening to the records and seeing the band live confirms what you already know: Punk Is Not Dead. The anthem-like choruses carry the energy and echo of UK82 and the spirit of the street still runs rabid through the veins of these four uglies.

One thing is for sure, no beauty contest will be won by this band, and they are quite possibly the shortest punk band in the world…But as we all know, great things come in small packages and experiencing them live, the raw power is guaranteed to blow ya face off!

RUST are not just an essential band on the Australian local punk scene, they’ve also established themselves as the support band of choice for promoters of international bands such as The Exploited, Uk Subs, Sham 69, The Business, The Varukers, the list goes on…Not to mention touring England and playing the pinnacle of the punk rock calendar, the prestigious Rebellion festival…twice!

Not only has this hard working band paid their rock and roll dues, they’ve even found time to head into the studio and put together a healthy catalogue of recordings (available from www.pugmusic.com). The result is a contemporary, accomplished and uncompromising take on the classic sound of the streets.

If you don’t like your music hard, fast, rough around the edges and damn proud of it...then stay at home with a cup of tea and a biscuit. All others grab a pint and we’ll see you in the mosh pit.
