COSMIC PSYCHOS - Go The Hack 1989

A few hours left so an old post from my former Blog and Fuckin' Hell comes out with the second album by this awesome band from down under, I really love their sound: dirty, rough, simple, garagey punk rock & roll” that the band excelled creating. Cosmic Psychos is a punk trio which was formed in the late 80s. Originally, Bill Walsh and Peter Jones were playing in the band called Spring Plains, which broke up in 1985. That same year they invited Ross Knight to join the group and thus Cosmic Psychos were born. Robbie Watts replaced Peter Jones after the recording of the brilliant live Slave To The Grave album in 1990. After a long hiatusa, at the end of 2005, the Psychos went to the studio to record the new album "Off Ya Cruet!" with a new drummer Dean Muller that replaced Bill Walsh. After the shock about the tragic loss of Robbie Watts, it was an option to drop the brand "Cosmic Psychos", but Ross was overwhelmed by the grief and support of the fans, so he decided, with full support of Robbie's kids: "There's more beer to be drunk!" John Onya (from the Onyas) was chosen as the one to play the guitar as he has already been friend of the band for quite some time.
