Mental As Anything

What is Mental As Anything?


1.

Underrated Aussie rock/new wave band originating in Sydney in the late 70's and peaking in the early 80's. Part of the legendary pub-band scene of the era.

Churned out many classic tracks including "The nips are getting bigger", "If you leave me, can I come to?", "Live it up" and "Too many times" to name just a few.

Known for incorporating wacky, self-deprecating humour and numerous drinking references into their songs. Comparable to American band Ween but with a vastly superior repertoire.

Also known as "The Mentals".

"Sometimes I wonder what all these chemicals are doing to my brain. Doesn't worry me enough to stop me from doing it again".

Mental As Anything - "The nips are getting bigger", 1979.
