[News] DIE! DIE! DIE! ‘SWIM’ ALBUM TOUR

diediedie01-2

New Zealand noise punk legends, Die! Die! Die!, are getting ready to return to Australia to launch their fifth and highly anticipated album, S W I M. To celebrate the release of this next blistering installment of the Die! Die! Die! legacy they’ll be performing select shows throughout Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia & Tasmania in September.

SWIM is an 11 track opus formed from the wall-sweat of Europe’s best clubs, scratched off the tour van floor and from down the back of the couch-surfed accommodation. Produced by the band and Chris Townend (Portishead, D12, Violent Femmes) from The Lab in Auckland to Lightship 95 in London, S W I M’s sparse geographical consummation is as expansive as their definition of punk and pop music. As an internet acronym for ‘someone who isn’t me’, S W I M’s title suggests that Andrew Wilson is stepping out of his own comfort zone lyrically and bringing new themes and broader strokes to the mighty crash and boom of Die! Die! Die!’s sound.
