Reasonably fresh out of Melbourne's urban sprawl, self-described socially progressive punks Porpoise Spit are gaining a solid reputation for their heartfelt ballads and raucous energy. Recently signed to Melbourne label Psychic Hysteria, Porpoise Spit are on the verge of releasing their debut full-length album after a few singles. They jump on board Australian Music Is Bloody Great and share some local faves.
