The Sydney music scene has been fatigued by indie-pop bands of late but - thank Buddha (for diversity’s sake) – there are a handful of bands lurking below the surface of the city that shirk off that label. Circle Pit are teetering on the brink of mainstream media acknowledgement but despite being chuffed and flattered by the attention, are determined to ‘keep...
BRUISE CONSTELLATION REVIEWED ON M&N
FROM MESS&NOISE:
Circle Pit Bruise Constellation
Circle Pit’s ‘Bruise Constellation’ illuminates the gaudy subterranean sleaze of Sydney, but it’s also catchy as fuck, writes SHAUN PRESCOTT.
Circle Pit’s first show at the Hopetoun in 2007 culminated in Angela Bermuda apologising to her audience. The post-Kiosk duo of Bermuda and Jack Mannix were supporting Always, and for many...
SELF-SUCKING AND BAREBACKING: RIP SCOTT O'HARA

ROSE QUARTZ REVIEWS 'SPEED LIMITS'
Richard Macfarlane’s Music Blog ‘Rose Quartz’ Reviews ‘Speed Limits’, from ‘Bruise Constellation’.
Check out this laconic jam from the surprisingly awesome new Circle Pit record (that’s not a diss, it’s just really awesome). These guys have a pretty long CV in the field of scummy punk rock, but instead of being brash and abrasive and lo-fi Bruise...
WRITE UP ON 'CIRCLE PIT: THE EXHIBITION' FROM...
Sydney band and artist duo Circle Pit (Angie Bermuda and Jack Mannix) inhabit and navigate a murky sea of rock and roll iconography: faded denim, leather, skulls, silver jewelry, bleached hair, fingerless gloves, bird bones, empty beer bottles, feathers, fur, aviator shades, scribbled out or scrawled on text… Hell, even their name is taken from a slam-dance style preferred by skinheads and...
