Goodshirt's sound had an anarchic strain, driven by fuzzed-out guitar lines, upfront synth melodies and warped atmospheric samples. They released two hit albums before falling silent for half a decade and then made a low-key return in 2010.
Goodshirt’s first attempt at making a low budget music video for ‘Green’ was a collaboration with art-house director, Florian Habicht (who directed Kaikohe Demolition and Love Story). It showed the band buried in the sand, while schoolgirls stood behind them, spinning hula-hoops.
While in London, Rodney Fisher toured throughout the UK as a member of Lawrence Arabia.
Goodshirt’s original manager, Grant Hislop, went on to work at Juice TV and eventually bought street-press magazine, Groove Guide, when it was on the brink of going out of business. In 2013 he also purchased RipItUp magazine.
