Solo project of David Kilgour, co-founder of The Clean and one of the architects of the Dunedin Sound. Active since 1991, the Heavy Eights name covers his rotating collaborative band across nine albums, most released on Merge Records.
The key group of New Zealand underground legend Peter Gutteridge (despite being a founding member of BOTH the Clean and the Chills). Snapper made driving, droning guitars-infused with synths post-punk throughout the 1980s and 1990s before Gutteridge disappeared from the public eye.
