    2025 : 7 - Droid

    We've been dying to get Droid on the couch ever since Dr Colossus told us about the ongoing feud between the two bands. Lucky for us, they were free and keen to discuss everything from how it all started (the band and the feud) to some of their favourite local noise artists to blast beats in stoner doom to the newest slurs to gain widespread use. You can check out more of their music here: droiddoom.bandcamp.com And they have a few links as well: linktr.ee/DROID And here's their social media: instagram.com/droidaus/ facebook.com/droiddoom/
