History
History
Bang! Records was originally conceived by Gorka Munster with the aim of releasing 7-inch vinyl singles. The first release appeared in 1998 with a 7-inch single release by Senor No. This was followed by singles from Brother Brick, The Hellacopters and The Nomads. With the addition of Juan-Mari Iturrarte, the label expanded to include gatefold vinyl LP releases and reissues with a growing focus on the Australian swamp blues music scene. To mark the label's ten year anniversary, the Big Bang! Festival was held August 15 and 16 2008, at Collingwood's The Tote Hotel. The festival featured performances by Kim Salmon & The Surrealists, The Kill Devil Hills, Stu Thomas, Brian Henry Hooper, Spencer P. Jones, Hugo Race and others.
