 Verbose Texan art-rockers headed down under. In exactly one month, NZ Music Month will be winding down. Music fans across the nation, having gorged themselves on a guiltless binge of local tunes, will no doubt be suffering from a serious case of the backyard bloat. Come June we’ll all have had enough. We’ll want to smash Smashproof, dob in Dobbyn and stick it to the Mint Chicks. But have no fear you cabin-fevered fatties, the internationals are coming. Providing the perfect remedy to your music month hangover is the Austin, Texas band whose acronym is longer than most band’s full names - …AND YOU WILL KNOW US BY THE TRAIL OF DEAD. Known affectionately as “TRAIL OF DEAD”, the eclectic rockers have just released their new album ‘The Century Of Self' and will be ending their world tour with shows in Auckland and Wellington. Known for their cyclonic live shows and their eclectic indie-rock manoeuvres, AYWKUBTTOD are hitting Wellington’s Bodega June 2nd and Auckland’s Transmission Room June 3rd. Tickets on sale now. WELLINGTON: Tuesday 2nd June @ Bodega AUCKLAND: Wednesday 3rd June @ Transmission Room |
