The Golden Age Of Piracy: Brain Case of FACS's Formative Five

This week, Tristen is joined by Brian Case, from Chicago Post-Punk trio FACS, ahead of their long awaited Australian debut at Northcote Social Club, in celebration of their sixth studio album Wish Defense (Trouble In Mind).

Brian selects his Formative Five, and shares the artists and experiences that have influenced him over his music career, from being gifted a Hall & Oates record at the age of five to his discovery of the groundbreaking world of punk via the Sex Pistols.

FACS will be playing at Northcote Social Club on the 8th of May, with support from Chimers, Twine and No Hoper. Tickets and information can be found here.
