The Trilobites were a Sydney-based band in the late 80s and early 90s. They mainly played around Sydney's southern suburbs, often at The Den at Penshurst, Caringbah Inn, and Sylvania Hotel. When Savage Mood Swing was released in 1990 The Trilobites had already released several good solid singles, an EP, plus a live album, and were deservedly enjoying the embryo of indie success with a growing live following amongst punters plus a sprinkling of airplay on Radio Triple J
On 24 October 1987 stalwarts of the Sydney live scene The Trilobites decided to record their show at The Caringbah Inn and turn it into a live LP, Turn It Around, released only on vinyl. For a live album it's an excellent fast-n-furious ride through several excellent songs, if perhaps a little too brief. Mike Dalton's voice is screechingly on song. We get two Trilobites originals, "Turn It Around" and "American TV", plus seven covers which seem to serve as their tribute to the American indie scene. (batfink)
