→ ↑ → / Man & Machine ‎– Pop Art / The Bath [7''] (1979, Crystal Ballroom Records)





→ ↑ → (pronounced as three clicks, often written incorrectly as "Tsk Tsk Tsk" or "Tch Tch Tch") was an Australian music, art and performance group, best known for their experimental music. They formed in Melbourne in 1977 and were led by Philip Brophy. The group performed music, produced artwork, films, videos, live theatre, multi-media, and wrote literature. 

Ex members of Adelaide band Parachute (Bob Kretschmer, Graeme Perry and Rick Grossman) joined forces with Eric Gradman (ex Bleeding Hearts) and Mick Holmes to form Man and Machine in 1978. Their first single was 'Crime Of Passion' released on the Missing Link label in 1979 followed by 'The Bath' in the same year. They gigged at The Crystal Ballroom in St.Kilda, best known for its association of Melbourne's post-punk movement. After just two years they called it a day in 1980.
