*****,*****

Ringwood, Green, Coop

Pronounced as two coughs, or sometimes just Cough, Cough and pretty much impossible to google, so here's me hoping to make life easier for those who seek for their music. Short lived trio started in Canberra later moved to Melbourne. Two self-released cassettes, art-punk, lot of no-wave vibes (also a bit This Heat, The Gordons), cool stuff generally, not the greatest quality though.
Allan Coop (later Sunday Painters) on bass, Peter Ringwood on guitar and vocals on second cassette, and Cathy Green (later X, the Aussie X. Could have just equally said the good band called X right ? you would understand which one I'm talkin' about) drumming.
