ABOUT ABOUT

"You could call Tropical Fuck Storm an Australian indie supergroup - and many in the Australian music press have. Singer and songwriter Gareth Liddiard and bassist Fiona Kitschin are key members of the Drones, guitarist Erica Dunn plays in Harmony and Palm Springs, and drummer Lauren Hammel works with High Tension; but ‘supergroup’ implies a level of rock pomp that this group don’t possess. You could view them as a successor project to the Drones – Liddiard writes all of TFS’s songs, as he did in the Drones – but that would also misrepresent the creative input that the rest of the band has in arranging and realising the songs. Descriptions flounder, but the name acts as the best barometer of the band’s intentions: Tropical Fuck Storm is a torrid, messy, thoroughly irreverent and acidly funny project." - The Quietus
