The Stevens ~ A History Of Hygiene

Melbourne scratchy pop foursome the Stevens formed in 2011 around guitarist Alex Macfarlane and NZ-born axe- slinger Travis MacDonald.

Chapter Music reissued the band’s 2012 self-titled EP, six insanely catchy songs that haunt your ears for much longer than the record’s 13 minute duration.

Their debut LP, A History Of Hygiene is markedly different to the EP, a impressionist whirlwind of song fragments and frenetic anxiety-pop classics, sequenced almost without pause in a heady 24 song, 44 minute rush.
