Spiderbait are an Australian alternative rock band known for their explosive mix of punk energy, heavy riffs, pop hooks and offbeat humour. Formed in Finley, New South Wales, by Kram, Janet English and Damian Whitty, the trio emerged from Australia's alternative scene in the early 1990s and developed one of the country's most distinctive rock sounds. Their music ranges from frantic punk and distorted guitar rock to melodic pop, electronic experimentation and infectious singalong anthems.
