Overview

Exploring the life, music, & artistic output of Stuart Gray (AKA Stu Spasm), the notorious underground rocker who created the most psychotronic group to ever emerge from Australia – the legendary Lubricated Goat.

The odyssey of a compulsively creative iconoclast who finds his artistic redemption outside the realm of commercial success. "An amazing personal journey -- 20 years in the making -- with one of noise rock/grunge's most unjustly unsung visionaries.” -Mark Prindle
