Chainsaw Hookers

Punters have only begun to scratch the surface of WA live music.

"I don’t think we’re going to have a grant, we’ll just see how it falls, and we’re interested in like what Josh Freese did with his record a few years back."

Three epic lineups of diverse and heavy music to hit Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney in January, including The Chainsaw Hookers and King Parrot.

Dirty distortion on the guitars glided over a classic rock feel – their hard riffs constantly sounded like they wanted to erode through into melody.

"No one wants to see a band who's shit-faced and falling over on stage." Or so Chainsaw Hookers learnt when watching Slayer side-of-stage at Soundwave.
