They appear to have a limited number of releases, with just a few singles and demos available online from the last couple of years. What I do know is that I am absolutely loving the sound of their latest single called “Arianne”. It’s part of a bigger collections of recordings under the title Contemporaneita which is an absolute stunner of raw, energy filled post-punk tunes. You can actually stream that 7 song album on bandcamp and even pick up a physical LP copy from the Australian based label Low Ambition Records. A solid start from a young band.
