Twelve Videos of Christmas #4: THE BIBLE BASHERS – She’s A Mormon Now
We continue our daily run of feature videos with this wrestle-tastic effort from Perth’s filth-peddling BIBLE BASHERS: She’s A Mormon Now, taken from their comeback EP Rise Hard.The video will be featured on RAGE tonight, so it seems fitting that we premiere it on 100% ROCK first.
They’re famous for delivering audacious, no-prisoners live performances, with comparisons made to THE CRAMPS, THE STRANGLERS, MC5, THE STOOGES & BEASTS OF BOURBON. Never ones to fall back on tired formula, they’ve spiced up their gigs by recruiting impromptu choirs and female backup dancers (The Bashettes) to join them on stage. They have even gone so far as to hand out their own currency (Bash Cash) and print their own ‘Prayer Book’, featuring Bashers’ lyrics, artwork, and comics. They have rubbed shoulders with acts like such as The Damned, Bog Log III, Hits, The Mis-Made, Fireballs, X, Six Ft Hick and The Stabs.
It’s been a whirlwind year of touring with the band taking their freak show to Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne, the latter where the band recorded their barnstormin’ sophomore EP, titled ‘RISE HARD.
