The Features, perhaps more than anybody, were the band that provided the stylistic delineation between punk and post-punk in the Auckland, New Zealand scene. The Auckland band lasted for all of a year from late 1979 to 1980. But they achieved a few things in that time. There was the classic single ‘City Scenes’ and then the Perfect Features Exposed EP which effectively became a headstone. They would lay the groundwork for Fetus Productions, the pioneering outfit that was part industrial rock, part art project and a whole other story.
The purpose of this blog is to expose you to the unique and unrepeatable New Zealand scene known as "Dunedin Sound" that emerged in New Zealand in the early eighties. This space takes over from wonderful blogs that in their time served to make known to the world some of the most significant bands and records of that period. The present collection is dedicated to all those kiwi bands -many of them already forgotten- who, without knowing it, wrote a very important page in the history of music.
