S4B and under-underground art
The philosophy emanating out of this body of musicians has influenced all
major art movements in Australia and around the world. It has even
been claimed that S4B has also been the sole reason behind the formation
and creative direction of the following movements:
- GaGa: just like DaDa, except with grown adults who want to revert to life in the womb . Major focus of art : like Pollock, this group uses a range of splashing and dripping of paint onto a canvas. Uniquely, they do this whilst wearing a nappy, sucking their thumb and crying for their mummy. Influenced by S4B famous gig at the Adelaide town hall, when G Dubya forgot to go to the toilet before the set and left the stage with a pool of water under the drum kit.
- Framism: This avant-guard group of artists has emerged as a major artistic force in the last few years. It has mainly come from owners and employees of local frame shops, who – in a radical move - have argued that no picture is as good as its frame. They, design, create, cut and measure to size artistic frameworks. These frames can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars in the art world. This group claim to be influenced by the stylish frames that Roderic wore in a 1994 gig at Wembley town hall.
- Vegetableists: This group of artists mashes up root vegetables and throws them onto giant canvasses. The result evokes feelings of horror, revulsion and sometimes soup. This group was formed after Jon Nolungus, self-proclaimed leader of the movement, listened to S4B's vegetable songs, namely ‘Vegetarian Indigestion' and ‘Naked Pumpkins', 35 times on repeat one dull Saturday afternoon in November 2004.
