Australian punk trio, Cosmic Psychos, formed in the mid 1980s. Originally consisting of Bill Walsh and Peter Jones from Spring Plains, the group invited Ross Knight to join in 1985. After a long hiatus, they returned with new drummer Dean Muller and continued their journey. Despite the tragic loss of Robbie Watts, the band decided to carry on with full support from fans and Robbie's kids. John Onya joined as guitarist in 2006. A documentary film about the band titled 'Blokes You Can Trust' was released in 2013.

The band debuted on wax almost 30 years ago and since then have become an Aussie punk / pub rock institution, touring the globe and influencing a generation of Seattle musicians (Mudhoney, the Melvins and Pearl Jam among them) in the process. 1985's Down On The Farm mini-LP. This is the record which made the original splash back in the day and hasn't been in print on vinyl anywhere since that time. Featuring original guitarist Peter 'Dirty' Jones on wah-wah guitar, it's an absolute classic of heavy-duty punk / grunge. The self-titled LP from 1987 is another classic with the original line-up. Contains the two bonus tracks plus the entire Down On The Farm mini-LP. 19 songs in total.
