Following in a tradition of bands and beer that has existed throughout the ages, T54 thought it was time they got their own brew too.
So the Christchurch band wrote a song, the Dux brewed a beer, found some old bottles and now they are one.
T54 and the Dux are proud to introduce: Kill Red Lager: A Beersingle.
Kill Red is the latest single from the southern trio, recorded by Tom Bell at Dunedin's Sammys and brewed by the award winning Dux Brewing Co.
The beer, a golden lager, is limited to six dozen with each bottle featuring a free download of the track and artwork designed by Oscar 'Evil Genius' Guerrero.
Here's some thoughts on the T54 Experience:
"You guys were probably my favourite band of the night" - James Milne.
"I heard your song on the radio the other day. It sounded suitably brutal" - James Milne.
"It's easy to see why everyone that bought 'Drone Attacks' went out and bought guitars - pure heroic bliss, a bona fide part of a rich New Zealand heritage" - JS.
