Biography
Tankt was a Melbourne duo consisting of Dave Foreman and Roby Massaglia.
Formed in 2000, Tankt produced two full-length cds, 'Despair Ltd' and 'Devolution', which were released via local label GUP and attracted the band some attention in Europe where their track 'Elite' became a dancefloor staple in many underground industrial clubs.
Fast-forward to 2004 - Tankt leave GUP and decide to stay independent. They self-release a new CD called 'Strip Off The Gilt' which sees them develop their earlier political inclinations into a more concrete and developed form… and despite Tankt being a heavily electronic outfit, collaborations with various guest musicians have seen the band embrace different styles such as rock and electro-punk… the result being a diverse yet cohesive sound best described as post-industrial.
Their last album, called 'Club Life', saw the departure and break-up of the band as of December of 2006.
