30 Odd Foot Of Grunts

Categories: Musical group stubs | Australian musical groups

30 Odd Foot Of Grunts was actor Russell Crowe's musical band before he began a solo career in 2005. The name of the band comes from a phrase heard by Russell Crowe during post-production on the movie Virtuosity. Apparently, some additional voice recording was required for a fight scene; since time is sometimes measured by length of film in the movie industry, Crowe was asked to provide the eponymous "30-odd foot of grunt".

The band achieved neither critical or popular success during its time.

Perhaps their only claim to fame, other than Crowe's celebrity status, is the Frenzal Rhomb song "Russell Crowe's Band", in which it is described as "a fucking pile of shit".
