This Night Creeps : Formed in 2002 by former My Two Cents bandmates Luke McPake and Steve Uren, Hamilton’s This Night Creeps immediately began building a solid fanbase through their honest, emotional, abrasive form of hardcore. The band’s sound is unique in New Zealand, and although influenced by the likes of Hot Water Music and Sommerset, the four-piece have chosen a more experimental path, exploring extreme dynamics and unconventional song structures.

Love Like… Electrocution : began in January 2002 with founding members Garth (guitar) and Dave (guitar). After three months of lazy bedroom song writing, Jarrod Brown (drums) was recruited, but lasted only a handful of practices before it was decided that it wasn’t meant to be and invited Slackjaw’s drummer Rowan Tedge to join the ranks. At this time they were rehearsing with Jay, their first bassist who also only lasted two or three weeks and was happily replaced by their good friend Jordan Perryman. Tom, who expressed interest in vocals, was in Russia and was scheduled to return within days and Brett (vocals) was kicking around town awaiting action. They finally came together about two weeks before their first scheduled appearance in April,a party held in Garth’s lounge room in Sommerton Park, Adelaide. Jordan (bass) was leaving to persue a Teaching career in Japan the day after the party so they decided, for the benefit of their future, to replace him with new found friend Timmy Sullivan.

This Split features 2 songs from each band and this other track with weird stuff on it... honestly this whole cd is just so REFRESHING two bands pushing and breaking the limits of genres and not paying attention to boring generic patterns...
