    Second Hand Band’ is the second EP release from Avalanche, a rock n' roll record which perfectly captures the experiences of a young Aussie rock band on their way to the top.

    “Avalanche have been making a name for themselves as purveyors of blistering Aussie hard-rock in much the same vein as those who came before them, with clear influences being taken from the likes of AC/DC, Rose Tattoo, and The Angels… they’re one band you need to watch”.
    - Rolling Stone Australia

    Including stand out singles 'Permanent Ink', 'Get Back (To Fuckwit City)' and 'Second Hand Band', it's safe to say, this is hard rock. Real honest to God hard rock, as only 20-somethings from the mean streets of Sydney’s West can do.

    Tinged by the influence of their dad’s record collection and the dirty pub rock of Australia’s past, but played through the interpretation of their own generation. Avalanche have moulded and captured their signature sound & live show, one which routinely leaves the audience covered in blood, sweat and beers - and packaged it within 27 minutes of raw rock goodness. Just wait 'til you get this up ya!

Hitting with the force of a truck Taking over I got my sights set on you It ain't over Cause you've got the burning itch And I'll just witness When they start coming for you You take them over You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct Burning everything that you see Just to be free You explode bigger than a bomb It's going up in smoke Brighter than a burning fire It's easy for you Taking all our wants and desires It's easy to do You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct You've Got That Killer Instinct

I remember the day when the band first hit the stage We were young at heart, strong, dumb and wired to blow em away That’s why I take my heart away And yet I'm proud to wear it on my sleeve and let it be known We're a second hand band So we lived around playing here and there shocking all around From city to city and coast to coast we've been the host We've played em here, we've played em there I ain't one to boast And yet I'm proud to wear it on my sleeve and let it be known We're a second hand band We're a second hand band We’re second hand, we’re second hand, we’re second hand, we’re second hand We’re second hand, we’re second hand, we’re second hand, we’re second We’re second hand We’re second hand We’re second hand We’re second hand We're a second hand band

I get my way, each night and day Don't like it don’t bother me I get my kicks, you throw your bricks, well fuck off back where you came Cause I don't like your face, real ugly mother, don't be coming round here again There's nothing left to do, I'll take it back to you, I'll show you how it'll be Get back To fuckwit city Back To fuckwit city Back where you won't, back where you don't, back where you ought to be (Back, to fuckwit city) Get back To Fuckwit City Get back To fuckwit city Back To fuckwit city Back where you won't, back where you don't, back where you ought to be (Back, to fuckwit city) Get back To Fuckwit City Get back To fuckwit city Back To fuckwit city Back where you won't, back where you don't, back where you ought to be (Back, to fuckwit city) Get back To Fuckwit City

Isn't it funny when you look around and you see the same old thing Everywhere you go everything you see all looks the same to me I don't want to be a part of I don't want to be your sheep I ain't gonna sit and take this It's not for me When I look around it's always you following me (It's not for me) When you love the sound you ask for me and only me (We want to be) When it's time to think its always you think for me (It's not for me) I ain't gonna spit inside your mouth Sick of seeing everyone around that just looks the same to me Thinking that they're part of something new when it's just too plain to see I don't want to be a part of I don't want to be your freak I ain't gonna sit here and take this It's not for me When I look around it's always you following me (It's not for me) When you love the sound you ask for me and only me (We want to be) When it's time to think its always you think for me (It's not for me) I ain't gonna spit inside your mouth

Took my mind Took my heart Just when I Thought you were Cause if I do just what you say I might just go insane Down in the gutter Gutter And just now Think I found Just what I'm All about If I do just what you say I might just go insane Down in the gutter Gutter
6.
I see that look You give to me Thinking you know what I've done Like It's written all over me Black and white And Plain to see Coming down all around Like my sins all over me And when I least expect it to show That's when it will rear its ugly nose They call it permanent Ink So turn around Yes it's me Take a glance and I will know what you see all over me And when at last You see the light You'll know that it's not you that matters to me And when I least expect it to show That's when it will rear its ugly nose They call it permanent ink
