Crime & The City Solution // LIVE AT PLAN B — MALMÖ
Crime & the City Solution recently returned after a 10-year hiatus to release their sixth studio album, the killer, on Mute. Inspired by Bonney’s work delivering aid programmes, it looks at the ways conflict manifests in everyday life, and features tracks such as ‘Rivers of Blood’, ‘Brave Hearted Woman’, ‘Peace in my Time’, and Witness, which the band recently performed live for Le Cargo.
Formed in Sydney by Simon Bonney at the age of 16, Crime & the City Solution’s early performances from 1977-1979 had a big impact on key figures of the early Melbourne art-punk/post punk scene. In 1984, Bad Seed Mick Harvey shipped Bonney to England to form the London based Crime with their friend the brilliant and ever influential ex-Birthday Party guitarist Rowland S Howard, with his brother Harry Howard on bass and Epic Soundtracks on drums.
