Smarts is a Melbourne band, combining frantic, yet taut and rapidly paced rhythms amidst playful, almost child-like riffs and melodies. 'Who Needs Smarts, Anyway?' was recorded in Geelong in a DIY studio setup. Their points of reference could be compared to the quirkiness of Los Angeles' Suburban Lawns or Geza X, as well as citing influence from modern sounds like Japanese band Vodovo and the Midwest American punk scene.
Also available: WHO NEEDS SMARTS, ANYWAY? (USA) (LP).
