1. G'day Arsehole metal heads what's cooking? how is life up at the top end of Australia going? Anything wild or crazy? What's the latest news?
G'Day turkey breath Johnny Psyclops here, not much is cooking on the camp fire at the moment probably some charcol left overs around haha. We're just kicking back drinking beer and listening ugly music like Superchrist. The top end is always the same nothing much changes up here, I'm waiting for the buggers to put street lights in still haha. Lots fishing and hunting, Dirt track racing and maybe the odd rehearsal as well. The only thing crazy recently was Sir insult-a-lot made BBQ into a car and can now cook and drive at the same time, He's a maniac! We had a bushfire recently and maybe a few crocs around but all of that is normal for us up here haha.
It's a quiet year for rubbish mob but in the next few weeks we will start rehearsing again for the next slab of tracks.
2. When and how was Rubbish Mob formed, where did the name even come from?
Rubbish Mob is a combo of our old bands. In the 80's Sir Insult-a-lot, Massive and I had a thrash metal band called The Mob; we recorded 2 horrible demos of bush thrash. Nothing was happening so In the early 90's we re-located to Perth and changed the name to Rubbish. We played a noisy punk/thrash style we did 2 demos and an EP and experienced city life hell.
After no success we returned to the top end bush by 1999. After a couple of years relaxing with beer and women it was time to start it up again in 2001 and call it Rubbish Mob. The rest is a smelly stench...
3. In the bio sheet it states that there is 3 demos before "Up in the block hole" demo but there is very little information about these releases. Can you give us some more info about the time before the block hole demo.
Geez those 3 demos are complete poop haha, They were just cdrs released between our mates up in the north. The first prolapse demo party was in 2002 with the release of Richie's Garage Demo containing 10 tracks of prolapse party songs. It was recorded at Richie's Garage featuring Sir Insult-a-lot, Massive, Mahatma, Soggy and Johnny Psyclops.
The second sewer storm party was in 2004 with the release of The pig and the tractor demo containing 8 tracks of sewerage. Same line up as before, same shit sound as before.
The third of block holes was in 2006 with the release of Arsehole metal demo containing 14 tracks of diarrhea bush tucker, no remorse. Featuring Sir Insult-a-lot, Massive, Mahatma, Turbo Slip Pervertus and Johnny Psyclops.
We have no intentions to re-release them as all the songs will be re-recorded anyway one way or another.
4. The most classic aspect of the band is the gross covers and pictures on all the rubbish mob releases what's the reason behind this? You have used arseholes, pussies and other random pictures, what will the next covers have install?
I feel The pictures almost have nothing to do with the music at all which is kind of strange.
Sex sells my friend, well maybe not for us haha but it sells. Everything is sexual and in your face these days, sexploitation is in full swing. We decided to take this concept and pump it up to the max, now its disgust sells haha. Its great hearing the feedback regarding the cover as our releases stink up the underground. Lots whining and crying about the covers from grown men but none from any women hahahaha go figure that one. Rubbish Mob will always have disgusting over the top covers regardless of the music content. Next covers will feature big tits, piss drinking, scat, bestial love, more block holes etc
Prepare to cry even more you wimps! Beware!
5. Up in the block hole demo was released in 2010 on graveyard shift records on CDR and Tape and it's one ugly dirty thrashing punk piece of shit classic demo. Tell us about the time around this demo release. The recording, the writing of the songs and the reception etc. How did the partnership with graveyard shift records come about?
One of my cousins is friends with the graveyard shift mob down in Melbourne and got us hooked up with them. We sent them a rehearsal tape and they liked what they heard and agreed to release the up in the block hole demo. They handle everything us for us as well because we're in the middle of nowhere up here we can't really do shit. I remember leading up to recording it was just good to be back as we did nothing for 4 years before we recorded up in the block hole. The whole demo was done in a couple of hours we just plugged it in and went for it live, very hot day and we were very drunk.
Reception was mixed maybe more on the negative side? not really sure we don't pay too much attention, we've got drinking and hunting to do. Sometimes graveyard shift lets us know about a review. Everyone talks about the cover and never about the music all the time.
6. How is the metal, punk or music in general scene like at the top end? is it getting stronger?
Not much to report up here, the closest scene town is Darwin and none of us live there. When we play or visit there, there is a few shows going on and a small dedicated crowd. I would say for metal and punk that it's getting weaker and punters are falling off. When we play no one rocks up or cares it's always the same 10 arsehole metallers hahaha. Even the bands we've played with over the last 10 years or so are all gone we're the last one left haha.
7. I've heard some classic stories regarding your live shows. No band in any major city does what rubbish mob does on stage. So what's a rubbish mob live show like? Explain to the readers what sort of experience they can expect. Any chance of playing any major cities in the future?
Yeah we've done some crazy shit over the years; we've got the freedom to do whatever up here haha. We've done a lot of shows outdoors which is our favourite type of show. We have block hole queens, Hot BBQs on stage, Compost bins, Sex toys, Mysterious white powders, Richie impersonators, Old jocks and socks, Vulgar food, Politician cut out burnings and much more it's a carnival of bush fire.
Yes a real tour to the major cities will happen when the mead is ready... we've got some news! it won't be long before we will be at your door, under the radar, in the pipes. Re-location of the sewer pit will be happening in the next few years. We will be bringing the carnival of bush fire to your shit box cities soon. Like every other dickhead aussie metal band says... BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!
8. Sick and Insane Pollution promo CDR was released in 2011 on graveyard shift records again. The sound and playing is greatly improved on the new songs.
More aggression and power. Tell us about the time around this demo release, recording and reception. What's the reason to include 2 older songs on this promo?
We had a new drummer and guitarist so we decided to put the tinnies down for a couple of days and rehearse and record a few new tracks. We recorded all the tracks in about 1 hour live on slightly better equipment and desk than the demo that's why sounds a bit better haha. We got a top bloke from the south to mix it for us. It is the best Rubbish mob recording ever done; let's hope we can top it on the next one. Since the new tracks were for a split and single and wouldn't be heard for a year or two we decided to use 3 new songs and 2 old ones for a promo so we could get some new material out there, not a bad idea from brown love. Not sure on the reception I haven't heard much about it, I think the cover was more talked about again.
9. Rubbish Mob like to take the piss out of everything and especially other Australian bands any reason for this?
Taking the piss is the Australian way, we’re still waiting for some band to take the piss out of us but that might be hard to do haha. All the bands we take the piss out of are horse shit anyway. We do it because no one else has the guts to do it.
10. Quite a few of the rubbish mob members like to travel to the major cities from time and time. What are your thoughts of metal and punk scenes around Australia?
Some of the Rubbish Mob Crew likes to travel around Australia and do a bit of Promo around the cities. The reports back are that the cities are filled with boring bands and lamer headbangers. It's a very hold my hand and blow me there sort of scenes around Australia. Nothing at all like the crazy bush bangers.
11. I see the next release is a 4 way split with Spavaldery from Italy, Thrashera from Brazil and Infestator from France titled "The Last Drinks before the Storm" again to be released on Graveyard shift records. How this release come about and what can we expect from the other bands?
Graveyard shift records suggested to do a split with some overseas bands so we said yeah go for it and they set it all up. All the other bands are crazy and different in their own way, should be a classic unique release this one. Expect dirty thrashing punk mayhem soaked in beer and thunder. A big G'day to Thrashera, Spavaldery and Infestator for having the guts and joining us in this split.
12. I also see on the release schedule a single titled "bush, babes & beer" arriving early 2013. What can the arsehole metal fans expect from this release?
This release should be a little Ronnie Coote. It will be packed with 4 new songs and 2 unreleased songs recorded in 2011 all into one hole of a CD. Expect this release to take Rubbish Mob to the next level of the sewerage plant pump. Bush, Babes & Beer should make it in the charts without a doubt and it will lead us to cash, champagne, limousines and whores like watain haha.
Decline of humans and society, Women selling their holes, Plastic surgery disasters, Garbage dumps, Hard Rubbish, Spinifex, Greed, Corporate scum, Useless politicians, Rock star bands, Religious nut jobs, Ugliness, Tits, Piss, Block holes, Perverted Disgust, Australian History, Classic Movies, Cities of rubbish, A Future going no where...

14. The videos on youtube are really funny with many classic photos in a slide show setting. What's the go with these videos and who makes them? any new videos out soon?
One day we'll have the equipment, cash and time to do a real promo video that would be a ripper! Probably be too over the top and rude for youtube geeks haha. Yeah I make the videos just using some crap program I just collect the pics from the net, sometimes my mates send me some classics. I just chuck them into a video and sometimes make my own edits to make it funnier. We get better feedback on our videos than our music releases haha strange world. More videos to cum!!! Lick the shit, Richie occult metal and bush, babes and beer!
15. In Rubbish Mob's ugly words who are the best and worst bands in Australia and the world?
The current bands we like and you should listen to, they lay down the law!
Superchirst ~ Christ Kiddo ~ The Remains from Tassie ~ ~ Thrashera ~ Spavaldery ~ Post Vomit Voice ~ Infestator ~ Power from Hell ~ FEMA... is about all I can think off right now mongo!
Battler, there is so many snooze bands around these days especially here in Australia, it's getting to a point of overkill.
Electrik dynamite ~ Sanguinary misanthropia ~ Claim The Throne ~ Disentomb ~
Bane of isildur ~ Barbatos & Abigail ~ Internal nightmare ~ Ghost ~ Watain ~ Heaven the axe ~ Drowning the Light ~ Hate for Fate ~ Order of Orias ~ Ruins ~ Kromosom ~ PortalThese bands are like a meat pie left out in the sun for 3 days, not very good on fuel... Where's the power, action and the glory? no where! Snooze time music!
16. What does the future hold for the sewer pit of Rubbish Mob?
The last drinks before the storm split out soon. Bush, babes & Beer single out in 2013 followed by Same shit, different arsehole single late 2013.
A possible bush show or 2, Also our first tour diary magazine out in 2013 and more useless junk like nuclear dim sims now! Light a fire and give it some time, soon the smoke of Rubbish mob will appear!
17. Thanks for the interview crazy yobbos, All the worst for the future, have some beers ready for me when you play in my city.
