Release Notes:

The Combovers formed in mid-2004 and are based in
South East Queensland, Australia. They've recently
described their musical style as a unique blend of
Hard Rock, Alternative and Electronic Pop which
would eventually become the ultimate outlet for
nerds around the world to raise their plastic
lightsabers and embark on the final showdown with
the enemy, the cool group.

"...we think YOU should get a piece of them" Paul
Mac & Daniel Johns Myspace Team

Members Luke Reichelt (Vocals/Bass), Michael Simms
(Guitar/Vocals), Jeff Paton (drums) and Ian Peres
(Keys) are all students at the Queensland
Conservatorium, Griffith University studying for a
Bachelor of Popular Music. They have spent the last
year recording material for 2 CD releases, their
debut EP üePasta of Muppetsüf and their new album
üeBin Night Anthemsüf. The Combovers have had
success on mp3.com.au in the past year with their
demos reaching the top 10 in the üePop/Rock
Artistsüf charts. The Combovers have also received
airplay on Bay FM in Cleveland and on the University
of Manitoba campus radio station 101.5 UMFM in
Canada.

"Their sound can be likened to US geek-rock icons
Weezer, but harder on the ears, but in a good way!üh
Emily Berndt, Undertow Street Press

In 2005, the band released their debut EP online,
'Pasta of Muppets', which is available through such
online retailers as iTunes and CD Baby. The EP also
features the üesynthologyüf of Jade OüfRegan of
Melbourneüfs Jane Vs World. The EP gives audiences a
glimpse of whatüfs to come from The Combovers and
thatüfs the onslaught of Nerd-Pop/Rock that is their
debut album 'Bin Night Anthems'. The band have also
released audio streams of some of the tracks from
the album on their Myspace page (address above).

They have played shows with the likes of
Melbourneüfs Jane Vs World and Man Bites God along
with local Gold Coast acts such as White October and
The Summer Was Hell. The Combovers also üegot their
nerd onüf at the Griffith University, Gold Coast
Campus Open Day as they took part in a showcase with
other emerging young acts from the Queensland
Conservatorium.
