}}Venom P. Stinger was an Australian noise rock band, formed in Melbourne, Victoria in 1985. The band's original line-up consisted of Mick Turner on guitar, Dugald MacKenzie on vocals, Al Secher-Jensen on bass, and Jim White on drums. Writing for Spin, music critic Byron Coley described their sound as "magnificent, speedy scuzz-rock that blurs the distinctions between punk and noise like 40 stiff beers."[1]

Turner and White went onto join Melbourne violinist Warren Ellis in forming the post-rock band Dirty Three.

History

Turner cited The Birthday Party, Flipper, Dead Kennedys and The Saints as early influences on the band.[2]

Soon after the release of the band's sophomore LP, What's Yours Is Mine (1990), they embarked on an American tour with Nick Palmer, who replaced MacKenzie as lead vocalist.

Venom P. Stinger's influence has been detected in a wide range of bands, from the likes of Halo of Flies and other American stalwarts of Amphetamine Reptile Records, to more recent Australian groups such as Melbourne's Eddy Current Suppression Ring.[3]

After leaving Venom P. Stinger, founding member Dugald MacKenzie moved to Adelaide, South Australia, where he died of cancer in October 2004.

In 2013, American independent label Drag City reissued the original line-up's catalogue with the compilation Venom P. Stinger 1986–1991.[3]
