Join the hive, catch the buzz.
Music Sucks is an indie rock band based in Whakatū/Nelson. It started in Christchurch in 2011 as Sam Wilkinson’s songwriting project and has featured a rotating cast of musical legends ever since. The current lineup met at an open mic night mid-2025. They make weird, funny music that sometimes sounds like indie rock, alt pop, and post-punk if you are lucky. Music Sucks has released two albums, Periscope Straws (2012) and Road Cone City (2018), plus the single Wack Job (2020). New material is currently being recorded.
