'''Cryogenic''' were an Australian [[thrash metal]] and [[death metal]] band formed in 1992 in [[Wetherill Park]], a suburb of [[Sydney]].

==History==
===Early===
The band originally featured guitarist Steve Essa, bass player Anthony Henning, singer/guitarist Russell Player and drummer Chad Bartosik, who was also a member of another thrash band called Neophobia. Cryogenic's history is linked to that of another Sydney thrash/[[groove metal]] band called Mortality, that was formed around the same time by guitarist Darren Jenkins, bass player Luke Ford and vocalist Darren Maloney. Mortality released three demos and toured with [[Sepultura]] before Jenkins was replaced by Craig Figl and original drummer Rick Fuda by Steve Pell, previously of a late-80s metal band known as Kilswitch. Mortality's activity stalled due to a long delay in the release of their debut album ''Structure''. While it was eventually released in early 1997, dispute about musical direction saw Mortality disband six months later.

===Demo===
Cryogenic released its first demo in 1995. However Bartosik left before the band could capitalise on its success on the local Sydney metal scene. Temporary drummer Grahame Goode from Neophobia played with the band on a key support date with [[Belgium|Belgian]] thrash band Channel Zero but without a permanent drummer Cryogenic was on the verge of splitting up. Late in the year, Mortality's ex-guitarist Jenkins joined the band as drummer, enabling them to support [[Fear Factory]] in mid-1996 before beginning work on a debut album, ''Suspended Animation'' in early 1997. At the same time, the band deliberately cultivated a following amongst the "[[Westie people#Sydney.2C Australia|Westy"]] headbangers of Sydney's western suburbs. In a further link to Jenkins' former band, in the aftermath to the disbanding of Mortality, Player was then replaced by that band's vocalist Darren Maloney, who re-recorded the album's vocal parts just prior to release.

===Late 1990s===
Cryogenic appeared with [[Strapping Young Lad]] and then [[Cradle of Filth]] in late 1997; this began a string of tours and opening slots for the band that included a tour with [[Entombed (band)|Entombed]] and shows in [[South Africa]], England and Germany to promote ''Suspended Animation''. This was followed by an Australian tour with [[Slayer]].

In November 1998 the band appeared at [[Metal for the Brain]] for the first time. They would go on to play twice more at Australia's largest heavy metal music festival.

In 1999 Cryogenic played at the Sydney [[Big Day Out]] and late in the year released their second album, ''ego-noria''. 2000 featured heavy touring around Australia including the Big Day Out once again. After a third Big Day Out appearance in 2001 Cryogenic went off the road for much of the year, ostensibly to work on another album. However, in October it was announced that Maloney had been replaced by Steve Simmons, formerly with [[Canberra]] [[nu metal]] band [[Henry's Anger]]. Plans were then made for the band to relocate to the United States with tentative plans made for shows in [[Los Angeles]]. However, Simmons was injured in a car accident and was forced to leave the band.

===In The Name Of===
The remainder of Cryogenic then based themselves in Los Angeles and re-launched itself under the name of In The Name Of after recruiting vocalist Ryan David. That band broke up in early 2005, with Jenkins returning to Australia. He now works as a producer and sound engineer. Maloney, Ford and Pell reformed Mortality in late 2005 with guitarist Andrew Lilley, a former member of Psi.Kore, Infernal Method and Atomizer. The band played a single comeback show in Sydney in August 2006, with no plans to continue further at the time. Mortality were reported to have begun writing and rehearsing once more as of mid-2007, but no new material has surfaced to date.

'''Dappled Cities''' (formerly "Dappled Cities Fly") are an Australian [[indie rock]] band from [[Sydney]].

==History==
===1997–2003===
The band came together as teenagers in the northern suburbs of Sydney in 1997. [[Dave Rennick]] and original drummer Hugh Boyce were joined by Alex Moore on bass and Tim Derricourt on guitar. Keyboards were added occasionally by Mark Bradshaw, and after 2006 more regularly by Ned Cooke.

The band started out playing at all-ages shows and charity benefits before they reached legal age to play in the licensed venues in the Sydney CBD. They performed at the [[Hopetoun Hotel]] (now defunct), the Excelsior and The Bat and Ball. The band members moved to the inner suburbs of Sydney and after various name changes settled on Dappled Cities Fly.

The band made several tours of Australia and also toured [[New Zealand]] in 2004. In 2006 Dappled Cities Fly performed in London, England and at shows in the United States, including [[South by Southwest]], where they played again in 2009 and 2010. From 2006 to 2009, the band did a number of tours of America and Canada, including performances at the Crocodile Club in Seattle, Mercury Lounge in New York and the Troubadour in [[Los Angeles]].

===2004–present: Recording career===
Dappled Cities Fly's first album, ''[[A Smile]]'', was released in late 2004<ref name="Inc.2007">{{cite book|author=Rebecca Raber|title=Dappled Cities|work=CMJ New Music Monthly|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=JSsEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA18|date=May 2007|publisher=CMJ Network, Inc.|pages=18–|issn=1074-6978}}</ref> and was featured as album of the week on radio stations FBi and Triple J. and reviewed favourably in ''[[The Sydney Morning Herald]]''.<ref>Zuel, Bernard (22 December 2004). Fly boys. ''Sydney Morning Herald (Metro supplement)'', p. 15</ref>

In 2006, Dappled Cities released their second album, ''[[Granddance]]'', recorded at Sunset Sounds and Senora Studios in Los Angeles.<ref name="Inc.2007" /> The album's cover artwork has the band's name as Dappled Cities, without the word "Fly"; while this was done for artistic reasons at the time, by 2009 the band were calling themselves simply Dappled Cities. In 2007 the band toured with Sydney band [[Red Riders]], and later recorded and released a cover version of "[[November Rain]]" with them. In February 2008 Boyce left the band, and was replaced later that year by drummer Allan Kumpulainen.

Dappled Cities' third album, ''[[Zounds (album)|Zounds]]'', was released in Australia in 2009 and in the United States in early 2010.<ref>[https://www.smh.com.au/news/entertainment/music/gig-reviews/dappled-cities/2009/08/20/1250362157126.html "Dappled Cities"]. ''Sydney Morning Herald'', Bronwyn Thompson, 21 August 2009</ref> The album received many positive reviews.{{citation needed|date=December 2016}} Pitchfork gave the band 7.8 and noted that "Dappled Cities haven't quite acquired a big reputation outside their homeland yet, but it seems likely they will". The band toured during this period in New York and London while also doing a number of tours around Australia to positive reviews.<ref>[http://www.theaureview.com/sydney/dappled-cities-glass-towers-panama-oxford-art-factory-31-05-2012 "Live Review: Dappled Cities + Glass Towers + Panama - Oxford Art Factory (31.05.12)"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170101001621/http://www.theaureview.com/sydney/dappled-cities-glass-towers-panama-oxford-art-factory-31-05-2012 |date=1 January 2017 }}. ''The AU Review'', 2 June 2012 Natalie Salvo</ref>

The band recorded their fourth album, ''[[Lake Air]]'', throughout September 2011 at Megaphon Studios in St Peters, following recording sessions in San Francisco and Los Angeles. The recording was done with the assistance of [[Jarrad Kritzstein]] and the album released in July 2012.<ref>[http://www.voxmagazine.com.au/2012/06/dappled-cities-launch-%E2%80%9Clake-air%E2%80%9D-alongside-washington-bluejuice-catcall-and-palms-audio/ "Dappled Cities launch 'Lake Air' – with a little help from their friends] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170101005616/http://www.voxmagazine.com.au/2012/06/dappled-cities-launch-%E2%80%9Clake-air%E2%80%9D-alongside-washington-bluejuice-catcall-and-palms-audio/ |date=1 January 2017 }}. ''Vox Magazine'', 29 June 2012</ref>

In 2013, the band collaborated with the [[Australian Brandenburg Orchestra]] and members of the [[Australian Chamber Orchestra]] for "The Future is Baroque", a [[Sydney Festival]] exclusive event pairing Dappled Cities' music with Baroque instrumentation. The band played as the supporting act at [[Death Cab for Cutie]]'s "Codes and Keys" tour at the Palace Theatre in Melbourne, Australia.

The band returned from hibernation to play a sold-out show at Sydney's Newtown Social Club on 5 February 2016. The show featured a number of new songs from the band's upcoming fifth album, ''|||||'' (pronounced "five"). In May that year they released a new single, "That Sound". In early 2017 the second single, "Stone Men", was released along with an accompanying music video. ''|||||'' itself was released on 5 May 2017, the date intentionally mirroring the album title. The title was chosen to reflect the fact that the band had made five albums, had five members and had not put out an album in five years. ''|||||'' was properly launched with a show at the City Recital Hall in Sydney. At the show, it was announced that bassist Alex Moore would be leaving the band. He was later replaced by Mark Harding.

Following another five-year hiatus, the band released a three-track EP entitled "Be Here" in late 2022, followed by a live performance in Sydney, Australia in January 2023.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Gallagher |first=Alex |date=2022-11-22 |title=Dappled Cities return after five-year hiatus with surprise 'Be Here' EP |url=https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/music/dappled-cities-return-after-five-year-hiatus-with-surprise-be-here-ep-3353220 |access-date=2023-05-21 |website=NME |language=en-AU}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-11-22 |title=Dappled Cities Return, Release New EP and Announce Comeback Show |url=https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/dappled-cities-return-release-ep-015339491.html |access-date=2023-05-21 |website=Yahoo Entertainment |language=en-US}}</ref>

In 2001, she released ''In Dreams I Live''.

The album was rated at number 5 in Your Music Radar's "Top 20 Best Australian Albums of 2018", with Brian Parker opining, "An album that serves as a chronicle of one person's experience of change, yet ultimately becomes therapeutic for her listener – giving hope that life and love is worth it, and with change comes positivity. A beautiful album that marks Phillis as one of Australia’s vital singer-songwriters."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Parker |first1=Brian |title=Top 20 Best Australian Albums of 2018 |url=http://www.yourmusicradar.com/top-20-best-australian-albums-of-2018/ |website=Your Music Radar |publisher=Your Music Radar |accessdate=29 December 2018}}</ref>

'''FourPlay String Quartet''' are an Australian string quartet from [[Sydney]], formed in 1995 and renowned for playing music not typically associated with the format.{{Citation needed|date=January 2020}}

FourPlay's members include brothers [[Tim Hollo]] (violin and viola) and [[Peter Hollo]] (cello), [[Lara Goodridge]] (violin and vocals) and [[Shenzo Gregorio]] (viola); former members include: [[Veren Grigorov]] (viola) & [[Chris Emerson]] (viola). Although all members of FourPlay had formal classical training, the band play an eccentric form of rock music, with subtle influences from three of the four band members' [[Jewish]] heritage (although FourPlay regard themselves as an Australian band above all else) as well as gypsy, pop, folk, [[hip hop|hip-hop]], electronica, [[post-rock]], [[folktronica]] and many other forms.

==History==
FourPlay's first album, ''Catgut Ya' Tongue?'' was released in 1998, and featured mostly covers (of bands including [[Metallica]] and [[Depeche Mode]], and the [[Doctor Who theme music|theme]] from ''[[Doctor Who]]''), along with a few original compositions. In late 1999, Emerson left to get married in [[England]] and was replaced by Veren Grigorov. FourPlay released their second album, ''The Joy Of...'' in 2000, which included, among other things, a two-part [[Dub music|dub]]/[[klezmer]] composition, a distortion-heavy cover of [[Pop Will Eat Itself]]'s ''Ich Bin Ein Auslander'', and a [[Romani people|gypsy]]-style instrumental ending with a mass scream. This was followed, a year later (2001), by a 2-disc [[remix]] compilation, ''Digital Manipulation'', featuring work by many Australian musicians, including [[Machine Translations]], [[B(if)tek]] and [[Darrin Verhagen]]. FourPlay have also toured abroad extensively, and supported artists including [[George (band)|george]] and [[The Whitlams]].

In 2004, Grigorov was replaced by Shenton Gregory aka Shenzo Gregorio, renowned{{Citation needed|date=April 2009}} stunt violinist from Brisbane. Shenzo's personality and style meshed perfectly{{Citation needed|date=April 2009}} into FourPlay, and he took to the viola instantly. A highly fertile period of new composition resulted in many new originals, as well as covers of [[Radiohead]], [[The Strokes]], and various jazz/blues numbers. These were recorded in the latter half of 2005 and appear on ''Now To The Future'', released in June 2006.

In July 2009, ''[[Fourthcoming]],'' their fourth album, was released. Most of the tracks were written 3 years prior.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fourplay.com.au/discog.php |title=FourPlay discography |accessdate=2009-07-26 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090527085119/http://www.fourplay.com.au/discog.php |archivedate=2009-05-27 }}</ref> Recorded live at the Street Theatre in Canberra over three small gigs. Like the previous three albums, Fourthcoming contains a number of covers. [[Rage Against the Machine]], [[Leonard Cohen]] and [[Sufjan Stevens]]. A number of the original songs contain politically charged lyrics. The track ''A Grain of Truth'' was inspired by the [[Australian Wheat Board|AWB (Australian Wheat Board)]] scandal.<ref name="fasterlouder">{{Cite web |url=http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/reviews/events/19540/Fourplay--The-Governor-Hindmarsh-Adelaide-230709.htm |title=Fourplay @ the Governor Hindmarsh, Adelaide (23/07/09) on FasterLouder.com.au |access-date=2009-07-28 |archive-date=2009-07-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090731072705/http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/reviews/events/19540/Fourplay--The-Governor-Hindmarsh-Adelaide-230709.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> The track ''Where The Sun Don't Shine'' was written in response to the former Prime Minister of Australia [[John Howard]]'s sustainable energy policy for the 2007 election.<ref name="fasterlouder"/> The track ''Rudd-a-dub Dub'' refers to the then-current Prime Minister, [[Kevin Rudd]].<ref name="fasterlouder"/>

In August 2010, the band collaborated with author [[Neil Gaiman]] and comics author/artist [[Eddie Campbell]] at the inaugural Graphic festival at the [[Sydney Opera House]],<ref name="sydneyoperahouse">{{cite web |url=http://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/about/program_graphic.aspx |title = Welcome to the Sydney Opera House - Sydney Opera House}}</ref> composing a 70-minute accompaniment to Gaiman's novella "The Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains".

Ha" – to enter into a Sydney University band competition.<ref name="AMO Bio"/> They made the final alongside [[Frenzal Rhomb]] but both lost out to another group.<ref name="AMO Bio"/>

In January 1993 Front End Loader appeared at the Sydney venue of the [[Big Day Out]] concert series. In the next month they issued their debut singles "Weak as Piss"<ref name="McFarlane"/> and "'Fraid Knot".<ref name="McFarlane"/> Their debut album was the self-titled, ''Front End Loader'', which was released in the June 1993.<ref name="McFarlane"/> It was recorded at Powerhouse Studios and was produced by the group with Paul Tagg.<ref name="FEL"/> Australian musicologist, [[Ian McFarlane]], felt it "highlighted the band's sense of humour and gritty, unrestrained brand of thrash rock".<ref name="McFarlane"/> In September that year they supported an Australian tour by Canadian group, [[Nomeansno|No Means No]].<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="NLA 1"/>

===1994-2000: ''Adolescent Fantasy World'', ''Let's Ride!'' & ''Last of the V8 Interceptors''===
In June 1994 Front End Loader released the EP, ''Adolescent Fantasy World'', and followed with a [[split album|split single]], "Heightened State of Awareness" backed by a track from Melbourne-based [[psychobilly]] band, [[Fireballs (band)|Fireballs]].<ref name="McFarlane"/> In October that year Front End Loader toured Europe supporting No Means No.<ref name="McFarlane"/> Their second album, ''Let's Ride!'', as well as its lead single, "Be Jesus", were released in March 1995 by Shagpile Records and distributed by [[Shock Records]].<ref name="McFarlane"/> They had been recorded in September 1994 at Q Studios and mixed at Eclipse Studios with David Price and the group producing.<ref name="LR"/> Together the material "mixed brawn with irony, complex riffs with eccentric humour" according to McFarlane.<ref name="McFarlane"/> Rachel Hill of ''[[The Canberra Times]]'' felt the album "deserves a second hearing ... [as it] takes the fearless on a ... full-strength adventure of emotion and power".<ref name="Hill"/> In November 1995 they supported No Means No on an Australian tour.<ref name="Armitage"/>

Campbell formed a side project, the Impossibles, in 1996, as an alternative rock group.<ref name="AMO Imp Bio">{{cite web | url = http://www.amo.org.au/artist.asp?id=1540 | title = Artists :: The Impossibles | publisher = [[Australian Music Online]] | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080815004158/http://www.amo.org.au/artist.asp?id=1540 | access-date = 11 May 2021 | archive-date = 15 August 2008 }}</ref> Fellow members were Dave Aston on drums (of Trout Fishing in Quebec), Geoff Martin on bass guitar (Imp) and Brendan Smyly on saxophone and vocals (Andy 500).<ref name="AMO Imp Bio"/> Cameron and Smyly had met working behind the bar at the [[Sandringham Hotel, Newtown]] and Smyly had guested on an album by Front End Loader.<ref name="Smyly">{{cite web | archive-url = https://webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20131210002804/http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/88244/20160908-0131/researchdirect.uws.edu.au/islandora/object/uws_8974/datastream/PDF/download/citation.pdf | url = http://researchdirect.uws.edu.au/islandora/object/uws_8974/datastream/PDF/download/citation.pdf | title = You Went There for the People and You Went There for the Bands | last = Smyly | first = Brendan Paul | publisher = [[University of Western Sydney]] | date = August 2010 | archive-date = 10 December 2013 | pages = 29, 124, 181 | access-date = 11 May 2021 }}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> The Impossibles released an eight-track EP, ''Blanket Show'', in 1998 before disbanding in 2001.<ref name="AMO Imp Bio"/>

In January 1997 they supported [[Radio Birdman]] at gigs in Gosford and Coogee Bay, I-94 Bar's reviewer, The Barman, noted "while they're tight and intense, it's hard to see why they bother having two guitarists when, for most of the night, they play the same thing. I want to like them but I can't help thinking Helmet do the same thing, only better".<ref name="Barman 1"/> Their third album, ''Last of the V8 Interceptors'', was released in August 1997,<ref name="McFarlane"/> which was named for the protagonist's vehicle in the feature film, ''[[Mad Max 2]]'' (1981). It had been recorded in April 1997 with [[Magoo (Australian producer)|Magoo]] ([[Regurgitator]], [[Tu-plang]]) producing at Paradise Studios.<ref name="LofVI"/>

An ode to assisted suicide, "Pulse", from the album was issued as a single and became their signature tune. It received high rotation on national radio, including on [[Triple J]].<ref name="McFarlane"/> "Pulse" was listed at No. 72 on that network's [[Triple J Hottest 100, 1997|Hottest 100]] poll for the year.<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="TripleJ 97"/> Two further singles from the album appeared in 1998, "Summer Hits" (February) and "4 Star Heritage Arsehole" (April).<ref name="McFarlane"/> During the latter half of that year Campbell worked with a pop, rock group, [[Stella One Eleven]]; he was also a guest musician on [[Jimmy Little]]'s adult contemporary album, ''Messenger'' (June 1999).<ref name="McFarlane"/>

In 1999 Front End Loader recorded a cover version of [[Queen (band)|Queen's]] "[[Crazy Little Thing Called Love]]" as a duet with [[Barry Crocker]], which was issued as a single in July.<ref name="McFarlane"/> It appeared on ''Timelines: The Intergenerational Music Project'', a compilation album by various artists which paired young bands with artists over 60 to celebrate 1999 as the [[International Year of Older Persons]].<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="Hammond"/> At the end of that year Kostic, while still a member of Front End Loader, joined [[Regurgitator]] to replace Martin Lee on drums.<ref name="McFarlane"/>

===2001-2010: ''How Can We Fail When We're So Sincere?'' & ''Laughing with Knives''===
The band signed with Redline Records and in March 2002 released their fourth album, ''How Can We Fail When We're So Sincere?''. Kostic joined another group, [[Hard-Ons|The Hard-Ons]], on drums while continuing with Regurgitator and Front End Loader.<ref name="McGregor"/> In April the following year Front End Loader entered Troy Horse Studios, with Jonboyrock producing, to record, ''Ape Got Fire'' (August 2003), a seven-track EP.<ref name="AMO Ape"/>

At the [[ARIA Music Awards of 2011]] it won the [[ARIA Award for Best Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Album|Best Hard Rock/Heavy Metal Album]] category.<ref name="ARIA2011Wins"/><ref name="ARIA PR 2011"/> The group had sent Triple J host and Frenzal Rhomb member, [[Lindsay McDougall]], along to deliver an acceptance speech even though they felt a win was "highly improbable".<ref name="MessNoise"/>

In the prepared speech, the band indicated they could not afford to attend, they thanked their fans and families; then they addressed the local music industry "as you were … please carry on … we mean you no harm. We will continue to write Rock Music that we enjoy, play shows when and where we can, and record and release this music as our time, money, and circumstances permit. None of these activities concern you so please, move along, and let us never speak of this again".<ref name="MessNoise"/> The speech was not broadcast during the [[Nine Network]]'s channel, [[Go! (Australian TV channel)|Go!]]'s coverage of the ceremony.<ref name="MessNoise"/><ref name="TheAge Dec 2011"/>

On 14 July 2012 the group delivered another EP, the five-track ''Fresh Six'', while promoting a collaborative beer of the same name made with [[Young Henrys|Young Henrys Brewery]]. The beer was described by the company's owner as "tight and pretty punchy, and it should be strong obviously ... fairly bitter, and I know you guys are fond of tequila on stage so we should include some dark agave syrup in the beer".<ref name="Bell"/> Campbell told theMusic.com.au website's Steve Bell "Making a beer for us was far more impressive than the ARIA".<ref name="Bell"/>

===2018-present: ''Neutral Evil''===
In April 2018, the group released their sixth studio album, ''Neutral Evil''.

'''Gelbison''' were an Australian pop rock band formed in 2000 by Pete Farley on bass guitar, Dave Galafassi on drums, Edo Kahn on vocals and guitar, and his brother Nadav Kahn on vocals and keyboards. The Kahn brothers were also members of [[Nations by the River]] (2003–04). Gelbison released two studio albums, ''1704'' (7 April 2003) and ''See the World'' (8 November 2004), and disbanded in 2007.

== History ==

Gelbison were formed in 2000 in Sydney by Pete Farley on bass guitar, horns and backing vocals; Dave Galafassi on drums; Edo Kahn on vocals and guitar; and his brother, Nadav Kahn, on vocals, harp and keyboards.<ref name="Kalish">{{cite news | url = http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article228668807 | title = Gelbison: a euphonic wet dream | last = Kalish | first = Stacey | newspaper = [[Tharunka]] | volume = 48 | issue = 12 | date = 5 November 2002 | accessdate = 3 August 2016 | page = 26 | via = [[National Library of Australia]] }}</ref><ref name="Lawrence">{{Cite web | title = Gelbison – The WHAMMO Interview | last1 = Lawrence | first1 = Greg | others = Farley, Pete; Kahn, Nadav (interviewees) | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20040805123946/http://www.whammo.com.au/browse.asp?SectionID=217 | url = http://www.whammo.com.au/browse.asp?SectionID=217 | archivedate = 5 August 2004 | date = 23 March 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 | work = WHAMMO Interviews | publisher = Worldwide Home of Australasian Music and More Online (WHAMMO) }}</ref> Their first gig was at the Hollywood Hotel, [[Surry Hills]] attended by [[Ian Ball]] ([[Gomez (band)|Gomez]]); Nadav recalled, "We did meet [Ball] before [Gelbison formally] started. Edo and I met him in Bondi on a night out when [Gomez] were on their second tour in Australia and we connected on one very drunken night. Everyone ended up at my place, jamming until about six in the morning. So there was a musical and human connection. We somehow maintained contact."<ref name="Lawrence"/>

The band's debut album, ''1704'', produced by Ball, was released on 7 April 2003 via [[Virgin Records]] and [[EMI|EMI Music Group Australia]].<ref name="ARIA Apr03">{{cite web | url = http://www.aria.com.au/pages/ArchivedAustralianReleases-April2003.htm | title = Archived Australasian Releases | publisher = [[Australian Recording Industry Association]] (ARIA) | date = April 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}</ref> It peaked at No. 20 on the [[ARIA Charts|ARIA Hitseekers Albums Chart]].<ref name="ARIA Report 686">{{cite web | date = 14 April 2003 | archiveurl = https://webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20030506140000/http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/23790/20030507-0000/issue+686.pdf | title = The ARIA Report| publisher = Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) | issue = 686 | page = 17 | url = http://www.aria.com.au/pages/documents/issue686.pdf | archivedate = 6 May 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> Greg Lawrence of Worldwide Home of Australasian Music and More Online (WHAMMO) felt it was "a work of understated genius. Having Ian Ball from Gomez co-producing certainly helps but the compositions, the arrangements and the sentiment communicated throughout Gelbison’s debut LP is virtually faultless and much more than clever guidance from an established artist/producer."<ref name="Lawrence"/> Tim Cashmere of Undercover opined that "imagine if the out there factor could be multiplied by a thousand or so. That is one hell of a mellow album you've got there and local Sydney outfit Gelbison's major label debut is it."<ref name="Cashmere T1">{{cite web | archiveurl = https://webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20030928140000/http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/11299/20030929-0000/www.undercover.com.au/reviews/urgelbison1704.html | url = http://www.undercover.com.au/reviews/urgelbison1704.html | title = Gelbison, ''1704'' | last = Cashmere | first = Tim | publisher = Undercover ([[Paul Cashmere]], Ros O'Gorman | archivedate = 28 September 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref>

Ahead of the album they issued their debut single, "Metal Detector" (October 2002), which Lawrence noticed "made an impact on radio regardless of dynamic, manic riffing that seemed to challenge the listener."<ref name="Lawrence"/><ref name="ARIA Oct02">{{cite web | url = http://www.aria.com.au/pages/ArchivedAustralianReleases-October2002.htm | title = Archived Australasian Releases | publisher = Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) | date = October 2002 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}</ref> Cashmere described it as one of the album's "moments when the group gathered up the energy to head down to 7-11 and instead channeled it into tracks like 'Metal Detector'."<ref name="Cashmere T1"/> The following single, "Homelands" (February 2003), shows "a gentle flow but still contains imaginative garnishes and experimental textures."<ref name="Lawrence"/><ref name="ARIA Feb03">{{cite web | url = http://www.aria.com.au/pages/ArchivedAustralianReleases-February2003.htm | title = Archived Australasian Releases | publisher = Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) | date = February 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}</ref> A third single, "Good God", followed the album in May. Farley described that track, "I didn’t write the lyrics for that one but, for me, I get a sense of hope in that song, hoping for something that you haven’t got but you long for. I think there’s a real sense of longing in that song."<ref name="Lawrence"/> Galafassi had married Australian actress-singer, [[Toni Collette]], in January that year.<ref name="Benns">{{cite web | url = http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/01/12/1041990146127.html | title = Toni's wedding | last1 = Benns | first1 = Matthew | last2 = Sams | first2 = Christine | work = [[The Sydney Morning Herald]] | date = 12 January 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}</ref> Collette directed the music video for "Good God".<ref name="Cashmere P">{{cite web | url = http://www.undercover.com.au/news/2003/20030511_gelbison.html | archive-url = https://webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20041117130000/http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/11299/20041118-0000/www.undercover.com.au/news/2003/20030511_gelbison.html | url-status = dead | archive-date = 17 November 2004 | title = Toni Collette Directs New Gelbison video | last = Cashmere | first = Paul | publisher = Undercover (Paul Cashmere, Ros O'Gorman | date = 11 May 2003 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref>

Early in 2003 Gelbison were touring in support of [[the Sleepy Jackson]], when Edo Kahn and [[Luke Steele (musician)|Luke Steele]] (of the Sleepy Jackson) started jamming together one evening: they decided to create a side project, [[Nations by the River]] as an [[Alternative country|alt-country]] band.<ref name="McClintock">{{cite web | url = http://www.allmusic.com/artist/nations-by-the-river-mn0001912399/biography | title = Nations by the River | Biography & History | last = McClintock | first = J.

Gelbison's second album, ''See the World'', was released on 8 November 2004, Ball returned for production duties, along with [[Ben Frost (musician)|Ben Frost]] and Gelbison. Galafassi had left the group, while the remaining trio had started song writing in "a shack in Jarvis bay for [a] month writing period. In this time we compiled all our existing songs and wrote new songs and tried to decide on the best direction to take the record."<ref name="AMO See Recording">{{cite web | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20080804184942/http://www.amo.org.au/qa_interview.asp?id=601 | url = http://www.amo.org.au/qa_interview.asp?id=601 | title = Interviews :: Talking song surgery & ''See the World'' with Gelbison... | others = Nadav Kahn (interviewee) | publisher = Australian Music Online | archivedate = 4 August 2008 | date = 8 November 2004 | accessdate = 4 August 2016 }}</ref> They used Hamish Stewart to provide drums for about 30 demo versions.<ref name="AMO See Recording"/> Frost used Pro Tools "and started hacking at the beats sometimes speeding them up/slowing them down where we felt appropriate and re-appropriating fills and hits amongst the songs."<ref name="AMO See Recording"/> Ball "helped rework the song arrangements and structure and we tried to finish up all the tunes over the next three weeks in the studio.

In the first week of December, Australian journalist, [[Ed Nimmervoll]], declared ''See the World'' to be his Feature Album of the Week, "the voice of John Lennon's solo work, the gentle pop power of [[the Go-Betweens]] and the beautifully crafted sonic attack of [[Radiohead]] and Gomez rolled into one.
