Sneeze is a music group from Sydney, Australia consisting primarily of Nic Dalton (who also runs the band's record label, Half A Cow) and Tom Morgan from Smudge. They have had many extra band members including drummers Lara Meyerratken, Russell Hopkinson from You Am I, Simon Gibson from Half Miler, Evan Dando from The Lemonheads and Andy Calvert from Wifey. Bill Gibson from The Eastern Dark on bass and Cameron Bruce from The Fantastic Leslie on keyboards have played many shows with the band and current keyboardist is Leticia Nischang from Bambino Koresh. The band sees their floating line-up as one of their strengths.
Their last live show was in November 2006 until The Return Of Sneeze, playing at the Bald Faced Stag, Leichhardt in June 2009 with Adelaide indie-pop band We Grow Up. Their recordings have featured a range of guest artists including The Lemonheads (who were the first band to record a song for the first Sneeze album), Robyn St. Clare, Alannah Russack and Simon Holmes of The Hummingbirds, Bernie Hayes, John Encarnacao from Warmer, Simon Day from Ratcat, Swirl, The Plunderers and Jess Ciampa. Gibson and Holmes were both members of Her Name in Lights, which issued their debut album, Into the Light Again, in October 2004.
Sneeze is an internet video game first released in 2009 and inspired by the 2009 swine flu outbreak in which the object is to infect as many people as possible in a public place. The places include a train station, a supermarket, a nursery, and more. In all, there are 10 levels.
The game was commissioned by the Wellcome Trust.
The game works by allowing one sneeze at each level. At each level, the player's character is moved to a point of choice on the board in the setting. The player than "sneezes" and "germs" are spread in hopes of infecting as many other people as possible. Even if that sneeze does not infect everyone itself, there is a chance that others may be infected by those who were infected by the initial sneeze. If the player reaches the target (percentage of people who must be affected on that level), s/he is allowed to proceed to the next level.
Later in the year, the game was rebranded as "Stop Swine Flu."
Sneeze or 41 Songs In 47 Minutes (HAC50) as it is also known, is the first album by Australian band Sneeze. On the cover, tracks 1, 22-41 are marked as "bonus tracks" - the rest were initially released as a double 7 inch vinyl (Moo 08). Total running time of the album is 47 minutes, the track Demand is the shortest song at 18 seconds, Back Down the longest at 1:58.
+/-, or Plus/Minus, is an American indietronic band formed in 2001. The band makes use of both electronic and traditional instruments, and has sought to use electronics to recreate traditional indie rock song forms and instrumental structures. The group has released two albums on each of the American indie labels Teenbeat Records and Absolutely Kosher, and their track "All I do" was prominently featured in the soundtrack for the major film Wicker Park. The group has developed a devoted following in Japan and Taiwan, and has toured there frequently. Although many artists append bonus tracks onto the end of Japanese album releases to discourage purchasers from buying cheaper US import versions, the overseas versions of +/- albums are usually quite different from the US versions - tracklists can be rearranged, artwork with noticeable changes is used, and tracks from the US version can be replaced as well as augmented by bonus tracks.
