Featuring FAT WRECK CHORDS five piece punk band POUR HABIT all the way from Compton, California. These guys first appeared on Australian shores back in 2009 supporting label mates NOFX and punk rock heavyweights BAD RELIGION. Since then they have toured relentlessy at home and broad, releasing their critically acclaimed record 'Got Your Back' last year.'
Drummer, Colin, summarises the bands recent fortunes... "Fat Mike ruined me and my brother's lives... If it wasn't for Fat Wreck Chords, I'd probably be working a steady job, but because of those bastards this is my life...".
Joining the bill in main support will be aggressive punk outfit, Anchors. Since garnishing positive reviews for their debut album release 'Bad Juju', these guys have managed to score slots on festivals like Soundwave and Pushover and supports with international touring bands such as After The Fall. Not to mention positive airplay from national radio network Triple J, Anchors have solidified themselves as one of Australia's finest indepedent acts. They release their highly anticipated second album 'Lost At The Bottom Of The World' this August.
South Australia's Hightime cross the border to bring their energetic live party show to FEST-MAS 2012. Recently releasing 'Ishi Prende' via Pee Records, these guys are joined by party punk pranksters Totally Unicorn. With a reputation that includes inciting front of stage riots, nudity and racuous live shows, what more could the party goer ask for?
A swag full of local favourities round up the FEST-MAS 2012 experience. From revered folk-punk artist Jamie Hay to the mighty celt mosh of The Ramshackle Army who have recently returned from touring duties in the US with their heroes Dropkick Murphys. Also featuring Melbourne party band favourites The Bennies and The Gun Runners who are joined by some of the most talked about local up and comers Cavalcade, Clowns and Take Your Own who recently supported punk rock legends Guttermouth.
Unfolding across two stages from the Evelyn band room to the rooftop overlooking Fitzroy's famous Brunswick St. Featuring both international and local talent, FEST-MAS 2012 will be a unique punk rock experience to bring in the summer.
Merry Fest-Mas!
