Giddy Up / Big Attraction (10th Anniversary Edition) (CD)
Ten years ago, in a Chapel Street sharehouse held together by instant noodles and questionable wiring, four 20‑year‑olds wrote and recorded Giddy Up. Within the hour they had a band name, a Bandcamp page and the kind of momentum to kick-start a year of backyard shows and sweat‑drenched Melbourne gigs, paving the way for Big Attraction in 2017. These two early EPs bottled a raw, fast‑talking charm that has made waves over the past 10 years, and to celebrate that milestone the Aussie legends have gone and pressed 'em to a 12-inch. - Flying Out
Ten years ago, in a sharehouse on Chapel Street, four 20-year-olds with zero expectations wrote and recorded an EP in a single afternoon. Those six blistering minutes of music became Giddy Up. An hour later, Amyl and The Sniffers had a name, a Bandcamp upload, and the beginnings of a legacy. Following a year of backyard gigs, playing for friends and partying across Melbourne's sticky carpet music scene, the band released their iconic second EP Big Attraction in 2017.
Now, to celebrate a decade of raw power and reckless spirit, Giddy Up/Big Attraction returns in a definitive 10th anniversary 12-inch vinyl edition — fully remastered for maximum punch. The LP is housed in a gatefold sleeve showcasing Chris Sutherland’s iconic 2017 band photo, alongside an exclusive new essay from Amy Taylor and a heap of never-before-seen behind-the-scenes shots from the band’s earliest days by Jamie Wdziekonski. From DIY house shows in Melbourne to international stages, it all started here.
