WIN: The Paper Scissors Last Show Ever Show Double Pass

Together for over half a decade THE PAPER SCISSORS have decided to call it quits. Now what better way is there to go out than to have one last show, which is what they will do at The Standard in Sydney on the 6th of October.

The Paper Scissors have received boat loads of critical acclaim for their live sets and music releases alike, and were once labeled as "one of Sydney's finest bands of the past decade". Their sound is like a meditation within the traditions of punk, rock, garage and soul, embracing screaming guitars, wonky synths, while also mellowing down for some ambient, atmospheric whispers.

Their most recent release In Loving Memory is a true gem, and one of the better release to come out of Australia for some time. It is an incredibly mature and well thought release. Those who have not introduced themselves are encourage to jump to that pretty quick.

Some of the reasons cited as why the band had decided to dismantle were the struggles with not getting the attention, and coverage they (rightly) deserved. Never really meeting their own expectations, and 'playing for no one' seems to have taken its tole, hence the break-up. However, disheartening as it is, at least we get the chance to see the guys in action one last time. Their October 6 show at The Standard should be a must see for any music lover.
