Their influences, including led Zeppelin, Deftones, Smashing Pumpkins and Jeff Buckley has helped these five old school friends to develop a unique sound taking full advantage of their three guitarists.

From their humble beginnings of playing party gigs, Of Anaesthesia has come a long way in two years.

Of Anesthesia have a solid reputation in Bendigo for dynamic live shows and have regularly appeared at Bendigo venues The Vine, The Hopetoun Hotel, Gravel Hill and the Old Fire Station, gathering a strong fan base along the way. They have also been popular at the Richmond Venue The Central Club.

Its not only the Bendigo audience impressed by these lads. Mid 2002 saw them win the Castlemaine Push Battle of The Bands, where Of Anesthesia used the recording time to produce their first studio demo. A second recording is on its way as they were recently accepted to record on the Brit #6 CD. A TAFE initiative, which sees Bendigo bands receiving a professional recording of 2 tracks on a cd, intended for record company distribution and radio airplay.

Of Anaesthesia have worked hard towards creating their unique brand of music the band has supported notable acts such as Fourth Floor Collapse, Motor Ace, Antiskeptic, Fez Perez and Gersey.
