The Australian quintet are back with new music just ahead of a summer on the road with Djo, who they will support for select dates during his North American tour. "Terrestrials", which arrives as a meditation on humanity's ability to be both loving and cruel, is also accompanied by a music video produced by Jesse Taylor Smith.
Speaking about the new song, singer Nicholas Allbrook explains: “Gum wrote the music for this one and we recorded this in Mullumbimby with Julian Abbott at Nowave studio. This song is about the weirdest of all the terrestrials, people. Hellbent on flying away from or killing our home soil, with a big appetite for destruction, guns, roses. We can love and connect and nurture and inflict unbearable cruelty. You all know this but, yeah, it’s kind of a great mystery isn't it? It's almost more supernatural than extraterrestrials. Which is probably why we wrote this song. There aren't many of us who can forget for even a second about the unborn tomorrows and dead yesterdays but among them are, apparently, kids and people in love. My cousin Iz helped write this with our chats."
