ABOUT THIS BAND

Aussie punks Vintage Crop incorporate jerky post-punk elements into their muddy garage rock to galvanizing effect.

Vintage Crop was formed in 2012 in the bustling port city of Geelong, Victoria, by vocalist/guitarist Jack Cherry. After a succession of changes, the lineup solidified with Tyson Harper on guitar and brothers Tyler and Luke O'Brien as the rhythm section. The band's name came from a poster that Cherry's dad had put up in their home, depicting a British racehorse who, in 1993, famously became the first foreign runner ever to win the Melbourne Cup. Geelong was already home to a thriving D.I.Y. garage punk scene that had produced acts like Ausmuteants, the Frowning Clouds, and the Living Eyes, so Vintage Crop fit right in. They got their start playing at house parties and released their debut album, TV Organs, on cassette in 2017 through Weather Vane Records. A raw, untutored blast of muddily recorded garage punk, it was an immediate hit among fans of the genre and was reissued on wax the following year by France's Polaks Records. Their second album, 2018's New Age, was released by the influential Aussie D.I.Y. label Anti-Fade. Recorded in ten hours, it was a more accomplished and nuanced record leaning slightly toward post-punk, with more twisty, jerky guitar work and rhythms. Vintage Crop garnered more attention worldwide and undertook a European tour. Their post-punk-influenced style became even more pronounced on their third album, Serve to Serve Again, released by London label Upset the Rhythm in 2020. ~ John D. Buchanan, Rovi
