The Phosphorus Bombs – Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. For our previous work on the band – Click Here.

A strange band from London with revolving members quite literally in and out of humanity. For now the three-piece are to be believed wholly human although many...
The Phosphorus Bombs – Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Australian Punk-Rock music isn’t half bad and in this case Sydney and its scene have something for you. Enter The Phosphorus Bombs.
