The Leftovers



Possibly one of Brisbane's most notorious and undocumented punk bands, The Leftovers only released one EP, "Cigarettes and Alcohol" in 1979. The Leftovers were well known for being unruly and their shows were constantly shut down by police. Ed Wreckage said "Everybody was starting to get really bad drug habits and walking over each other's backs to finance the habits" in a 2000 interview about the bands disbanding. The band quickly went downhill apparently after suicide attempts, prison, and early deaths. Download this album for some historical Brisbane punk.
