Dead Boomers

Dead Boomers is a duo comprised of Mark Groves and Leith Thomas, both members of True Radical Miracle and operators of the Melbourne based label Sabbatical. Conceived initially as an easy outlet for the duo’s interest in contemporary harsh noise and binge drinking, recent activity has expanded the sound palette to take in additional repulsive capabilities of the selected instrumentation. This instrumentation is essentially comprised of collected analogue junk, and the resultant smut is centred squarely on metal abuse and screaming distortion, with brutally simple compositional ideas employed to establish structure. To date Dead Boomers has released a double cassette on the Sabbatical label titled Sharon Stone/Michael Douglas.
