In January 1997 , Deadstar appeared on the Big Day Out tour . In August that year they issued their second studio album , '' Milk '' , which Palmer co-produced with Kalju Tonuma ( Nick Barker , The Mavis 's ) . McFarlane felt the album contained " garagey pop gems " . In Australia two singles were released from the album , " Do n't It Get You Down ? " ( September 1996 ) and " I 've Got Something to Tell You " ( June 1997 ) . Both singles were co-written by Jones , Kennedy and Palmer . In the UK they issued " Sex Sell " as their lead single from '' Milk '' ( titled '' Deadstar '' for the European market ) on Discordant Records . At the ARIA Music Awards of 1997 " Do n't It Get You Down ? " was nominated for Best Independent Release . Late that year Nick Seymour left Deadstar and was replaced on bass guitar by Pete McCracken – Kennedy 's bandmate from Plum and her future husband
