Album details

Following on from their three WAMi nominations 'Most Popular Local Original Act', 'Most Popular Local Original Indie Rock Act' and 'Most Popular Original Guitarist' (Zoran Trivic), Gyroscope released the Driving for the Storm / Doctor Doctor EP.

Recorded at Studio Couch in Fremantle by Shaun O'Callaghan, it was released in September 2003 as a double A-side single/EP. In addition to "Driving for the Storm" and "Doctor/Doctor" are two tracks that are fan favourites, recorded live at the Amplifier Bar in Perth, "Fire Away" and "I've Been Struck By Lightning Once... So What's The Chance Of It Happening Again?". The later was based on the fact that, Daniel Sanders was struck by lightning, whilst he was out fishing with the band's manager of all places.
