2013NEW GODS PLAY SHOWS FOR NEW ALBUM ‘BELOVED’
Melbourne’s NEW GODS will play launch shows in Sydney & Melbourne come December in support of their independently released debut LP Beloved.
Beloved takes the best of 90s indie rock gods like Pavement and The Pixies, filtering it through the tape-warp hallmarks of hypnagogic pop. The result is truly unique. Thematically coherent as it explores vast sonic territory, Beloved is a welcome left-field contender for the best album of the year.
Beloved was released as a digital cassette available online, accompanied by a handwritten track list and a series of photographs that only reinforce how honest and how personal the songs are. Songwriter Dominic Byrne writes songs with undeniable emotional weight, dripping with the kind of nuanced emotion that’s miles away from the half-baked drama that often passes for “emotion” in popular music.
