Description The Necks are one of the most extraordinary groups on the planet and one of the great cult bands of Australia. The three musicians that are The Necks are among the most respected and in-demand in Australia, working in every field from pop to avant-garde. The Necks' music slowly unravels in the most intoxicating fashion, frequently underpinned by an insistent deep groove. The deceptive simplicity of their music is not entirely avant-garde, nor minimalist, nor ambient, nor jazz - the music of The Necks is unique in the world today.
