Volatile was a spectacularly non-PC noise/grind/death outfit from Sydney whose live show encompassed bad disco-dancing, indoor BBQs and dangerous experiments with exploding mannequins. Formed from '''Vomit''' by Kane and Frog where Kane was originally the drummer, the band went through some personnel reshuffles before Shane from [[Aftermath]] joined following the release of the first EP. With silly and depraved lyrics, a genuine drunken yobbo attitude and an entertaining live show, Volatile was confronting and extreme.
