Shady Nasty

1 festival played →

Sydney trio welding rap cadences to slippery, distorted post-punk guitar — Australian art-rock that treats the mixing desk as an instrument.

Shady Nasty are a trio from Sydney whose music sits between hip-hop and post-punk. Vocals are delivered in rapped and half-sung cadences over heavily processed guitar, with the recordings leaning on distortion, digital effects and abrupt shifts in texture rather than conventional rock arrangement. The result is often grouped with a broader strand of Australian art-rock and experimental guitar music.
