Description: Episode One- The Wellington Sound & the crazy 90's. This pilot episode explores the rock/metal boom in Wellington in the 90's, best known through bands like Shihad, Head Like A Hole, Fur Patrol and Weta. From it's humble beginnings, the scene exploded with the release of Shihad's Killjoy in 1995. However the success meant that bands had to move overseas, namely to Melbourne, and not all made it. My guests- Aaron Tokona- Frontman of Weta, later known for Fly My Pretties and Cairo Knife Fight. John Martin- Drummer for early 90's Wellington band Emulsifier. Pete Jamieson- Audio technician and music producer who currently works at Music Planet. He was present when Shihad and Head Like A Hole recorded early demos.
