Brisbane alt-rock band Sunbleached unveil their latest EP ‘I Crawled Into The Hole’ today, and share video for Beware Of The Dog. This week they joined UK’s Boston Manor as main supports for their three headline shows across New South Wales and Victoria and will showcase next week at BIGSOUND Festival in Brisbane.
Produced and recorded with long time collaborator Dylan Cottee, new EP ‘I Crawled Into The Hole’ is a nostalgic exploration of Sunbleached’s sound across their releases since their debut, specifically building on elements established on the quartet’s 2023 sophomore EP release, ‘Delicate Places We Hide‘. The new release features singles White Lace, Hell is Repetition, and No Cure For Life, which garnered radio support from multiple triple j programs, Eleven on Double J, Unearthed and community radio stations across the nation as well as editorial playlisting on Spotify and Apple Music.
Beware Of The Dog is the final single to be shed from the EP, and leans on heavier foundations. In short, the track thematically is a middle finger to the man and draws from vocalist Josh Baker‘s experience at a previous workplace, feeling undervalued, overworked and taken advantage of. The song is angry, grungy and frustrated, and comes paired with a music video that echos the sentiment – watch here.
Sunbleached officially join the BIGSOUND 2024 lineup with acts including Stand Atlantic, Sly Withers, Dear Seattle, Belle Haven and more. In 2022 the band were invited to play Destroy All Lines BIGSOUND showcase, where they won over the room and quickly became ones to watch. Sunbleached’s dedication and passion for their project has seen them welcomed to the Destroy All Lines agency roster and pick up new management from 27 Music (Teenage Joans, Bec Stevens, The Tullamarines).
