"Noonday Demon" Official Music Video from Incentive Dry is out now
After multiple technological revolutions, many humans have been domesticated and lost their full range of sensory functions. Therefore, they can serve the system more easily. The protagonist's job is to revive the lost vision with the device. The fragments of this given vision contain fictionalized images that intertwine with his memories and subconscious, evoking an emotional overload - the very power the city is trying to extract from him.

Initiate the dream of a blind man at high noon. What will he see? What will he become?

Our latest release, Ⅱ from WHITE+.

After ten years, WHITE+ reappears the undercurrents hidden in daily life.

What does ten years mean? From the beginning of a fall to the resurrection of life, completing the reincarnation of time. WHITE+, flowing in the gaps of time, interprets the linear understanding of daily life in a ‘new’ way. It could be a primitive scream of prayer in nature, or it could be circulated between fast lanes in the city. It seems to be a ritual. WHITE+ chooses to release themselves from the undercurrent. The whole thing is like a grand and exquisite sacrifice. They are not limited to the use of loops to tap the eardrums with looping melody, but also use the sound of synthesizers to create undulating waves by continuously superimposing the groove of drum beats, leading to the sound of imagination.

They refused to use definitions to kill the era of images, conjectures and visions, blending more elements to create ‘new’ energy for the vacant decade through a broad worldview. WHITE+ is opening up the senses with their scattered inspiration, sinking the old and raising the new. This is a new LOOP for sound exploration, and it is also the Mobius of resonance.

It's official.
Legendary Chinese indie rock band CARSICK CARS will return to Australia for the first time since 2017.
Formed in Beijing in 2005, the band are regarded as pioneers - and perhaps now, elder statespeople - of the domestic indie/noise rock scene. They have released three albums (the most recent, '3', produced by Sonic Boom of SPACEMEN 3 and the late, great Hamish Kilgour of the Clean) and toured the world extensively, racking up shows with SONIC YOUTH and slots on festivals including ALL TOMORROW'S PARTIES.
Influenced by Sonic Youth, Velvet Underground, Su***de, Glenn Branca, the Stooges, and Joy Division, Carsick Cars gigs are riotous explosions of pent-up energy and frustration. There's a certain fearlessness to their music: they are not afraid to write perfect, instantaneously catchy songs and they are just as unafraid of detonating them midstream amid a howling wall of guitar noise.
https://maybemars.bandcamp.com/track/zhong-nan-hai
After some personnel reshuffling over the years, the original trio of Zhang Shouwang (guitar and vocals), Li Qing (drums) and Li Weisi (bass) - the line-up which recorded the band's 2007 self-titled classic - have reunited and will be making their long awaited return to Australia.

Wed Oct 11 - Brunswick Ballroom (Melbourne)
Fri Oct 13 - sideway (Canberra) Sold out*
Sun Oct 15 - Moshpit Bar (Sydney)

*That one took us by surprise
