Having been raised on a chicken farm in the shadow of the Big Pineapple in Queensland, Geoff and Ben Corbett sought their artistic chops deep in Bjelke-Peterson territory. Dabbling in punk and performance art during the 1980s in Queensland meant tapping a fecund seam of anti-establishment fervour - the kind that remains flaccid and toothless until finding itself eyeballing active Police State oppression. In 1995, the brothers write and perform their death-country musical 'Country Style Livers' and realise they might be onto something, promptly scraping up the afterbirth and breathing life into the perpetual motion 'cane-swamp Rockabilly Punk' machine that becomes known as Sixfthick.
