Dylan Parry
While residing in Hamilton, Dylan Parry was a guitarist/vocalist in Giant Jack and the Codpieces (c.1991) and Romantic Andes/The Andes (c.1992-1996). Since leaving Hamilton for Tauranga via Wellington he has recorded as Discjockey Joe Bloggs, worked with Daniel Powell aka EE monk of Wendyhouse as Borris Baggins, and played bass for the band BareBones and Cabaret, and has been responsible for the release of the Nature's Worst and Nature's Worst 2 compilations.
Dylan Parry currently resides in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Natures Worst Volume No. 4 is currently pending release (News dated as of the 3rd of April 2013).
When released in September 2012 Nature's Worst 3 appeared with cover artwork by New Zealand artist Quint Baker that featured the eponomous Four Square Man, only this time the Four Square Man's famous pencil tucked behind his ear is instead replaced by a marijuana joint and his eyes have changed from a friendly glint to bloodshot red.
13.4% of New Zealanders between the age of 16-64 smoke weed, only 9.3% of the same demographic still know how to write with a pencil. This art work is the true depiction of the New Zealand man.
