The burgeoning three-piece lay claim to an amalgamation of post-punk, shoegaze and the good side of ‘90s indie rock revivalist; it’s raucous and swerving, always angling its way to sonic distinction.
Reflected by the announcement of their 11-date national tour is an approach predicated on playing live, where energy, tightness and the full force of sound can turn heads. Other than landing them support slots for international bands and prominent local acts, this direction has seen Horror My Friend play at this year’s BIGSOUND, and receive nominations for two South Australian Music Awards.
The first track to be lifted from debut LP Stay In, Do Nothing is ‘Stay In’. Primed with thrusting guitar lines and an unrelenting melodic hold, it comes in hot and never loses its potency.
