Gorilla Biscuits

Perhaps the most quintessential band of the New York hardcore punk scene of the late 80s, Gorilla Biscuits became highly influential in the space of just one album (1989's Start Today) and EP (1988's Gorilla Biscuits). With the group disbanding in 1992, Gorilla Biscuits briefly reunited in 1997 for a benefit at CBGB's, and played another show there on August 14, 2005 as a benefit to save the club from financial problems. To coincide with the re issue of "Start Today", the band held a month-long reunion tour during the US summer of 2006, and in September 2007 performed a month long tour across Europe. With Australian fans patiently waiting decades for a Gorilla Biscuits Tour, December 2008 will see the band heading down under for the very first time, tickets go on sale Oct 13.
