Tactics (band)
Tactics were a post-punk (or ‘art-punk’) band based in Sydney. They were formed in Canberra and moved to Sydney in late 1978. Tactics became known for running against the grain musically, lyrically, and stylistically. The lineup changed year by year, with songwriter and vocalist David Studdert the only constant member throughout the band's history.
Tactics released a series of critically acclaimed recordings and were respected for the quality of their live performances. However, the band has never received commercial success and remains largely unrecognised in Australia. Their music has been described as “frenetic, discordant, () full of unusual rhythms”.〔Bob Blunt. ''Blunt: a biased history of Australian rock'' (Prowling Tiger: 2001).〕
==History==
Tactics were formed in 1977 in Canberra. Dave Studdert is the lead vocalist, rhythm guitarist and main songwriter for the band; the other members were Angus Douglas (guitar), Steve Kilbey (bass) and Robert Whittle (drums). The band’s “quirky, embryonic sound met with virtual indifference in Canberra”. During 1978 Steve Ball became the bass-player. In September 1978 Tactics moved to Sydney (at the invitation of members of the punk-band Thought Criminals, who were pioneering alternative performance and recording opportunities there).
Tactics performed at inner-city venues in Sydney and began to build up a following. During 1979 Steve Ball left and Geoff Marsh became the band's bass-player (Kilbey having been asked to leave). A couple of early recordings – the ''Long Weekend'' EP (June 1979) and a single on the Thought Criminals’ Doublethink label (July 1980) – “suffered from poor sound quality and really only hinted at the band’s potential”.〔
