Mill-Garaxx: The Ophidian Twin (1989)
BackToni Sant presents The Ophidian Twin performing Call of the Wild during a Mill-Garaxx live broadcast on TVM in 1989. If you think Malta didn't have an alternative music scene before the 1990s just listen to this track and you'll be amazed. The Ophidian Twin was a short-lived underground band that rose from the ashes of two other bands: Prinz Eugene and Dance the Ghost. It was one of a good half dozen bands that played non-mainstream music in Malta at a time when recording studios were hard to come by and live gigs and venues were certainly not as abundant as they are now. Jody had been active on the local music scene even earlier in the decade, particularly with an electronic combo called The Joy Circuit. Mario Ellul was an integral part of the driving force behind a television series that captured some of that raw youth culture at the end of the 1980s. Sadly there is no official archival record of the series, but luckily, some enthusiasts have preserved VHS recordings of several moments from Mill-Garaxx.
