about

In the five years of Sandpit’s existence, the band, featuring Brendan Webb on vocals and guitar, Stephanie Ashworth on bass and Paul Sciacca on drums, accomplished a lot in a short amount of time. Influenced by the sounds of seminal ‘90s acts Swervedriver, Sebadoh, Dinosaur Jr. and Sonic Youth, the band jumped into the studio with producer Greg Wales at Sydney’s Charing Cross Studios, recording and releasing two EPs, Lessons in Posture and Tyranny of Creeps, ahead of their celebrated album, On Second Thought. The 2020 Cheersquad Records and Tapes release of The Hunting Picture sees the band’s first two EPs pressed onto the one record, which has been lovingly remastered for vinyl by John Ruberto at Mastersound. Fans can pre-order a special white vinyl reissue from cheersquadrecordstapes.bandcamp.com with only 100 being available on pre-order. The rest of the pressing will be on classic black wax and will be released on June 12.

As a special bonus the band has added two free guitar tabs for Bear This Cross and Three of Wands, as free downloads via Bandcamp.

The New Pop Dialogue
by Snout

what an unexpected thrill to stumble across this thick slice of my youth while deep browsing on Bandcamp. Heavily tinged with personal nostalgia but regardless this is a spectacular, exciting, snarling pop masterpiece. If the Beatles had first emerged in the wonderful 90s Aussie alternative scene this might be how they'd sound. Thank you for reissuing this - I haven't listened in at least 10 years (I had searched on Spotify but they weren't on there at the time) but found myself singing along Pijo
