Sydney Post Punk Band #1: Voigt/465

Sydney, circa 1979. A thriving underground music scene existed where nothing was concrete and the status of a band's line up was more than fluid. Whether or not one had mastered an instrument meant nothing, nor was it important. You had a different role in another band, and that was that. Bands would last years, or weeks. Nothing was concrete.

Over the coming weeks we will be re-introducing you to various artists from this exciting period in our music history.

Modular Welcomes The Swiss Aboard

In a time when everyone who isn't Crookers is claiming to be a "disco act", there is an insurmountable wash of pretenders. Adelaide trio The Swiss, however, are a legit live disco band whose existence is based entirely on flavour and good times rather than the Cobra Snake and fitted caps. And, as we collectively move into a new decade, Modular is very chuffed to announce The Swiss are the newest members of the ever-growing Modular family.
