The first song cuts off at 1:45. Sorry, will try to find a better copy. This is pretty rare to find.

 

Artist Biography

by Mike DaRonco

Upon the demise of the Sydney indie outfit Front End Loader, bassist Richard Corey and drummer Peter Kostic got together with former You Am I guitarist Greg Hitchcock and former Kryptonics front man Ian Underwood in 1994. Assembled as the power-pop outfit Challenger 7, the group released a six song EP immediately recorded even before the group even played their first show. But after only three gigs, Underwood remained as the only original member once the rest of the band departed. With drummer Marty Doo and bassist Dan Bell joining Challenger 7's ranks, the 1995 EP, Morris, was finally released with critical comparisons to Husker Du and The Replacements. Following the 1997 recruitment of former Asteroid B612 guitarist Stewie Cunningham, Challenger 7's follow-up EP, The Great Slump Forward, came out that same year.
