The Seizures

We are a band. We go to school at BSHS. We play music that is sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes loud, sometimes soft, sometimes angry, sometimes not. I hope that gives you an idea.

We have been around for about 14 months now. I think. We started off as a fucked up garage punk band, now we just rip off Flipper. We do try to be original, but living on the Sunshine Coast has rotted our brains. We haven't played many shows during our existence, due to the lack of interest in our local area, and the lack of all ages shows that don't suck in Brisbane. Our first legit show was with the Stabs, Slug Guts and Deaf Wish, which was cool because those bands are part of the very elite group of Australian bands that do their own thing and don't suck. That show was 18+ and at Rosie's, which did suck.

We've had one lineup change, when bassist Daniel H. quit early 2009. We now have Jake. This probably means a lot to you, I'm sure. At the moment I am working on getting a tape printed of a demo we recorded late last year, of songs that we either don't play anymore or we now just suck at playing. The tape is live and has four tracks. It was originally called 'Songs About Seizuring', with a Big Black rip off cover, but we aren't a joke/gimmick band (are we?) and only one CD with that cover was printed. The tape will be self titled and it goes for roughly 11 minutes. It will be available at shows fairly soon.

We practice and write a lot of music, but unfortunately we are lazy/inexperienced when it comes to releasing anything. Hopefully within the next few months we can get a few things out. Most things will be on tape, because vinyl is too expensive for a band that is 1/4 employed. If you want us to play a show, or if you want to order our tape when it's done, or if you want to send your bands demo or your zine, or maybe you just want a nice chat? Email: jackson.perrott@hotmail.com and I will make your dreams come true. Here are some posters from previous shows.














We have a show on the 14th of August with The Insurgents and Cult Minds (Melb). It's at Legions Hall in the Valley. Licensed and AA. Will upload poster when I find it.
