    The Beasts aren't the Beasts of Bourbon. but they both share members and a sense of fierce perversity.

    So when The Beasts play their show to mark 35 years since their immediate forebears, the Beasts of Bourbon, birthed the "Black Milk" album at The Forum in Melbourne on September 12, expect it to hit emotional heights and to venture into unchartered territory.

    The sun is setting over Sydney and on the line is Tex Perkins, singer for both bands and, with Kim Salmon (guitar) and Boris Sujdovic (bass), a survivor of the original line-up of the Beasts of Bourbon.

    Herbert is now based in Nashville, Tennessee, and is constantly in demand in the USA. He'll mark his Australian shows with a formidable video single, a cover of the Jimi Hendrix classic “Fire”, which you can view after the MORE link
