Melbourne, Australia (1988 – present)
The band name is a reference to “kissing and cuddling,” which, according to Thrussell, symbolizes the Marxist concept of destroying barriers between people (see the lyrics to “Light, Yet Refreshing”)
Their first album, Lies Inc., was released in 1992. Pieter Bourke joined the band soon afterwards, and Dear Valued Customer, which drew heavily on techno influences, was released in 1994. That same year, two sideprojects emerged: Soma was formed by Thrussell and Pieter Bourke, and Thrussell formed solo project Black Lung.
By 1997, the band had largely become a solo project for Thrussell (with guest musicians). Buy Me… I’ll Change Your Life was a departure in style, featuring country western-style guitar and a cover of Lee Hazlewood’s “Let the Little Flowers Grow”. 1999’s Third Mall from the Sun offered a unique blend of the style of the previous two albums, along with new influences. This was followed by the remix album Relax into the Abyss.
In 2003, Beyond the Valley of the Proles was released. This album offered a more refined version of the style found on Buy Me. Its 2006 follow-up, Snog Vs. the Faecal Juggernaut of Mass Culture, saw a return to a more electronic sound.
