There are more than one artists with this name: (1) Eucalypt was a screamo band from Sydney and Newcastle, New South Wales, often compared to European bands such as La Quiete and Raein. Formed in 2006, the band has released a 3 Demo CD (November 2006), a split with Melbourne's Needletail (February 2007), and a split with Brisbane's Sophora (June 2007). A vinyl release containing the songs from the Needletail split, along with others from the same recording session, is currently in the works, as well as a split with Majorca. The band's guitarists take the unusual step (as far as screamo bands go) of playing entirely without distortion, despite a number of fast-paced sections and the aggressive drumming that punctuates most of their songs. Eucalypt features ex-members of Bene Gesserit and the John Wayne Gacy Trust Fund. (2) Eucalypt is Nik Proctor of The Iditarod. Eucalypt is bedroom-antics and deep-rooted, simplistic psychosis. The menacing melodies are matched, equally, by his soothing, powerful vocals. Look for a release soon. He will have a song or two released on Lost Lamp records's compilation, due in the 1st quarter of '08. Read more on Last.fm.
