Born a couple of years back the laundry of an Inner-West sharehouse, streetwear label Altamunted are now on their way to taking over the Sydney streetwear scene – and they’ve got the festival to prove it.
With the long weekend just ahead of us, one festival lineup is giving us about 20 reasons why we shold be having a staycation. Gathering some of Sydney’s finest bands, DJs and rappers for the second edition of Festival Of Doom, streetwear label/neverending party machine, Altamunted, are once again proving they have their finger on the pulse.
Scouring the Sydney scene for some of the best live acts around, AM have brought together Rackett, Crocodylus, Raj Mahal, Kimono Drag Queens, Papaya Tree, Lex Deluxe and more for the mini-fest which is kicking off at midday on Sunday at The Lansdowne. Hell, they even have their first international act in the form of Boy Toy, from the US of A.
