About the artist

There are four bands called The Painkillers two of whose tracks are in the top tracks on this page - The Painkillers bring together the battered acoustic guitar of Joe Bludge and the massive rock n roll beats of James Baker. A fixture of the Perth scene, The Painkillers have played more gigs in that city than any other act since forming there in 2005. Their sound began with the common ground between Bludge’s love of proto-rock and Baker’s punk-tinted take on rock n roll
