Bio
Kontrasto are the bastard offspring of Sydney's turbulent & contemptuous rock music scene. A pack of deviant scoundrels intent on wreaking havoc & bashing in your senses.
Formed in a grungey Marrickville studio after 1 solitary jam in early 2020 - just a handful of days before the Sydney Covid19 lockdown - they were forced to forge their punk rock, stoner metal sound bound by the shackles of distance & cheap, trashy technology.
Prior to live music venues reopening & offering the opportunity to play gigs, these 5 degenerates bunkered down in their separate & solitary labs to assemble the beast that is the Bullseye Smile EP. A musical Frankenstein's monster born of various recordings hatched in multiple studios & home bases including a screeching vocal performance captured on a measly iPhone.
Now finally on stage where they belong, rocking & selling out venues, the monstrosity known as Kontrasto is building a thumping, grooving sound with Damo/bass, Giacamo/drums, Juggs/guitar, Kristoff/guitar & Matt/vocals.
