It isn't too often where a band biography challenges the cliche, and even less so, a band. This is where Project: Bad come into play. Its remarkable how a band who couldnt take themselves less seriously have achieved what they have.

Originally a joke band formed during September 2004, whilst its members were still in high school, Project: Bad garnered attention from those exposed to their alternative take on music so decided to take their wares to the live stage. Today, they purely aim to have a good time, just playing music. And this is where the cliche ends.

Project: Bad defied logic in creating their lineup; what better way to make a new band, than to take an accomplished drummer, John Reece (JR), and guitarist Chris (Horse) Rowe, (from local metal bands Termus and Trident Winter respectively) and make them swap instruments? Then, add Vorn Hunt, the iconic extroverted spokesperson for todays youth on vocals in order to complete the trio known as Project: Bad, (later becoming a 'quatro' with the introduction of bass player Harry Livings (Harry Livings)).

Playing a type of rock which has been described from old school punk, to traditional rock with a splash of pop, Project: Bad have shared the stage with the likes of Heavyweight Champ, The Simian Line, Elephant Mojo (vic) and Project: Mayhem.

Songs such as Pretzels, The Emo Girl with STDs and Chainsaw Man, have this unique ability to make the listener laugh, sing along and jump around, all at the same time. Their unique sound has increased their Perth fanbase, with two live appearances on Groove FM, the second after cult-hit Pretzels became the most requested song by listeners.

After playing a special gig for a backyard wrestling federation, and selling out all 10 copies of their debut album Making The World A Badder Place, Project: Bad are only on the way up. Project: Bad have since played at many of Perth's premier venues, further showcasing their goods (bads) with their trademark exciting and unpredictable stage presence. Curtin University guild magazine Grok, believe its hard to not like this Perth band and after a successful launch of their sophmore album "Phase 2: Kill All Lame People" Project: Bad have recorded a quick follow up with EP "Mi Goreng"
