With our album officially launched and the band officially no more, you can support our future endeavours by picking up a copy of the disc. I’ve listed the places you can download the album (in order of preference):

Or for all you oldschool folks, you can pick up a “Compact Disc” version of the album from:

On the scene for almost five years The Disguise awaken from yet another extended slumber, this time to play our final show and deliver a soundtrack to Perth’s never ending urban sprawl and the peculiarities of growing older. Sharing common members with the likes of Apricot Rail & Wolves at the Door, The Disguise play songs of honesty and devoid of pretention that recall the sounds & ideals of the mid to late 90’s guitar bands.

New single “Shipyard” typifies this, sounding like a long lost pop gem with a boy/girl vocal approach at the forefront. Elsewhere tracks such as “Frozen Faces” & “Through the Looking Glass” showcase a marriage of dreamy vocals, strange pop structures & outward guitar experimentation.

Although The Disguise are calling it a day, we are excited at the opportunity to leave a legacy through one final live show in the form of an album launch. Sharing us on stage the night will be beautiful songstress Kathryn Tree Rollins, local psychedelic oddballs Seams & Brisbane act Do The Robot whom we have decided to fly over especially to give the night some extra sparkle. Thankyou for the support over the years, may your day be filled with unexpected, happy surprises!

If you answered yes to one of these questions, then I’m sure you’re going to enjoy:

Speaking of Eastern States supports, we’ve managed to pick up a splendid gig down at the Norfolk basement with none other than Jamie Hutchings of Sydney’s Bluebottle Kiss! It’s on Saturday the 16th of May. Come one, come all, some people (mainly me) are already calling it the gig of the year. At least say you’re attending on the facebook event.

Some new recordings coming out soon. Watch this space (or myspace).

So if you’re not busy tomorrow (Wednesday 3/12) night, come down to The Claremont Hotel to join us in The Guest Room.

Lineup includes us as well as:
Miranda and

Those on facebook may also want to check out the event listing there.

The reason why I mention this here, of course, is that we happen to both be members of the band to which this website revolves around. In a bizarre case of incestuousness gone horribly wrong, we also happen to be playing at the opening party for said local music night. So ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you:
The Guest Room Opening Party - Wednesday the 29th of October at The Claremont Hotel from 8pm.
Featuring:
The Disguise
Mayuka
Ben Juengling
plus Special Guest DJ iPod.

Be there… or be busy that night.

I’ll post more details as they come to hand.

Peace

UPDATE:
Okie dokie, so here’s the lineup (see, I told you that you’ll want to see all these bands):

Get amongst it!

Here’s the deets:

So come along and yell “play your new stuff!” really loudly from the back of the room.
