Following on from releasing their critically praised single ‘Garden Hose Rainbows’, Central Coast-based indie-rock trio Nelipot have just revealed their new single ‘Lucy’s Better’ – engineered and mixed by Jack Nigro (DMA’s, Skegss) at The Grove Studios, Mangrove Mountain NSW.
Taking cues from the likes of The Hives, The Arctic Monkey’s and The White Stripes, ‘Lucy’s Better’ opens with flaring riffs and frenetic drums, as the abrasive rock n’ roll vocals of enigmatic front-man Jordan Olyslagers recall the encounters of lust and a head-spinning romance. Nelipot’s punk leanings roar into the sunset on muted searing guitars, before dropping to a half-time rolling chorus. “It’s just a song about the joy in finding new addiction” says Olyslagers.
To coincide with the release, the band will play another run of shows on the East Coast, which includes performances at boutique festival Sesh and The City, Brisbane and at Good Intent’s first birthday event to be held in Sydney. This continues on from a relentless touring schedule where the group have supported the likes of Boo Seeka, Lime Cordiale, The Jungle Giants, Alpine and Luca Brasi.
Previous single ‘Garden Hose Rainbows’ was widely embraced by the likes of Australian radio stations triple j, 4ZZZ, 2XX and Radio Adelaide. The track also received support from worldwide tastemaker blogs Clash Magazine (UK), Indie Obsessive (USA), Ohestee (CAN), Little Indie Blogs (UK), Yack Magazine (UK), The Girls at the Rock Show (USA), Pilerats, Wickedd Childd, Savage Thrills and Cool Accidents. The video clip featured as MTV’s Upload of the Week.
