Description : |
An Adelaide band together between 1983-1986, with a revival between 1990 and 1991. Were once known as the Falling Spikes. The line up included Mick Brown (1984-1985), Ian List (1985-1986), Jim Selene (1984-1985), Greg Swanborough, Doug Thomas, James Tizard (1985-1986), Chris Willard (1986), Sheree Goldsworthy (1991) and Paul Sharman (1991). Discography: Greg and Ian tried to make a name for the Spikes in London in 1986. However before they left The Spikes released Colour in a black forest. David Sly (The Advertiser April 1986, p24) describes this album as 'The 10 songs show a greater melodic strength and harnessing of the band's trademark of surging guitars', and in August 1986 reviewed the album in The Advertiser concluding the review with 'It's a potent, throbbing album full of guitar, a big beat and irresistible tunes from one of Adelaide's finest rock 'n' roll outfits'. |
