Australian rock band. Formed in 1989 as Custard Gun, disbanded in 1999. Reformed in 2009, performing occassionally between then and the release of new material, Come Back All Is Forgiven, in 2015. The word Gun was excised from the band name when their first single was released.

Also known by fans as Custaro after a common misreading of the logo they used during their heyday in the second half of the 1990s.
