Spatula Death
Spatula Death were formed in Hamilton in 1991 by Justin Harris (vocals, guitars, drum programming, noise) and Scott Schneebeli (guitars, vocals, noise). Scott Brodie (production, noises) joined soon after, and while initally acting in a production role, quickly became a fully fledged member.
In 1993 Spatula Death released a cassette entitled "We Are Spatula". Three songs recorded "live-to-air" on Contact 89FM can be found on Inside the Wireless
Post-1993 they often performed as a five piece, including Gary Clare and Matt Gould, although had enough "peripheral" members (including Ian Duggan and Gordon Bassett) to potentially perform as an eight piece. For a number of years they organised annual music events, under the guise of the Spatula Death Battle of the Bands.
Spatula Death ceased playing in 1995, with their last gig at the 1995 Spatula Death Battle of the Bands. Justin and Scott B formed Inchworm with Rob Talsma in 1993, with the bands existing concurrently.
In 2007, after a long hiatus, Spatula Death began recording new songs, with Harris in Japan and Brodie in England.
