Artist description The post-punk landscape slowly changed in Sydney at the beginning of the 80s with more emphasis being placed on melody and rhythm. More funk, less experimentation and so on. Wild West eased into this nexus with a taut style and a tidy little group dynamic. We lasted a year and a half, released one EP of fine songs and dissolved slowly.
