My Own Mess, the debut album from Byron Bay surf-and-garage trio Skegss, landed on 7 September 2018 and went straight in at number two on the ARIA chart, which is about as far as a band this scrappy is supposed to get. Four years after forming, they finally stretched their sunburnt rock across a full-length, and the fuzz and yelp of "Up in the Clouds" and "Smogged Out" sound like a backyard party that got loud enough for the neighbours to call it in.

The industry noticed as well: at the 2019 ARIA Music Awards it was up for Best Rock Album, though the trophy went to Amyl and the Sniffers' self-titled record.
