Band Information

Slyder was a Hobart band with the Zarins as the crux whose original style was fairly lightweight AOR like late-80s Def Leppard (but they were playing it earlier). The band became Tyrant in late 1982 and soon moved to Sydney. When Tyrant came to an end in 1986, Slyder reformed and continued with that band’s predilection for LA-style sleaze metal and AC/DC-inspired hard rock. Slyder issued a single in 1990 but by then had almost run out of steam.
