4Dead Robotosaurus
I went along with 4Dead and Robotosaurus on their East coast tour, these are photos from the Adelaide show at Animal House.
I Exist – Studio video
I shot some video of I Exist while they were in the studio recording their second album, and edited it together to their song ‘Wyvern’s Keep’. All shot on a Canon 5DmkII.
I Exist has posted a studio clip of a new song taken from their forthcoming album. ‘Wyverns Keep’ will feature on the bands new album “II: The Broken Passage” which will be released on June 17 on both CD and LP through Resist Records. To cut the long-player, the band returned to Melbourne’s Goatsound Studios, this time with US producer Billy Anderson helming the desk, whose credits include Sleep’s Sleep’s Holy Mountain and Eyehategod’s Dopesick: both hugely influential records for the band.

Bad Romance Tour – 1
Some photos from the first leg of the Bad Romance Tour with I Exist and Phantoms.
The Amity Affliction Dead Letter Circus BBQ
I did a photo shoot with a couple of members of The Amity Affliction and a couple from Dead Letter Circus for Blunt issue #93
The idea was to have a Master Chef style BBQ competition, after we arrived we realised the BBQ didn’t work so they ended up just getting silly with the raw ingredients.
Nile, Black Dahlia Murder, Unearth
Photos from the Nile show at the Factory Theater and The Black Dahlia Murder/Unearth show also at the Factory Theater. Published in Blunt Issue #91.

No Heroes Issue 8
I Exist seven strong
I Exist have had a total of seven members for a while now, so far they’ve only played one show with all seven, usually it’s six members on stage with either JJ or Kelly on third guitar. This is the first promo of them with seven members.
This is the new header image of their myspace, seven dudes with a sword getting silly, Patrick Galvin did the graphic design.
Not sure if I’ll post the original image, I might actually do some prints of it if anyone is interested.
Bad Romance
This is the back cover of a split 7″ between I Exist and Phantoms, I took the photo. If I had known at the time that it would be used for anything more than a snapshot I would have put more effort into it. Design and layout by Patrick Galvin who also drew the front cover, which can be seen here: http://patrickgalvin.tumblr.com/post/1643087385/heres-something-i-drew-up-a-while-ago-that-ive
Just south of Brisbane is a lovely place where dreams come true – Wet ‘n’ Wild. While touring together in March 2010, Canberra sludge merchants I Exist and Sydney pseudo thugs Phantoms visited this magical place and decided to immortalise it in song. Recorded in one afternoon with Lachlan Mitchell between visits to Sizzler and a Soulfly concert, the result is Bad Romance, 2 songs from each act and all named after Wet ‘n’ Wild rides.
The 7″ will be released January 14th 2011, with a pre order available from December 6th.
