Pond offer a skerrick of hope in a hostile world with a new record – their 11th – Terrestrials. A cyclone of urgent, scorched earth rock’n’roll, Terrestrials tips the hat to the sounds of then while squarely facing up to the here and now. 

Conceived from a place of reverence for a particularly potent epoch in Oz rock, Terrestrials mines the sound of open sky melancholia, heat haze sizzling on the plains and jangly pub backrooms that hits an eternally poignant nerve for anyone familiar with the sound, time and place. From there Terrestrials evolved and the idea of “Goths at the pub” became the record’s stylistic north star – iconic 80s Australiana being acid-washed with the eyeliner-stained post-punk of Sisters Of Mercy, Magazine and the like.
