Watch Earth Tongue's Video For New Single 'Grave Pressure'
Earth Tongue blast listeners into a hellscape vortex of sludgy riff overload with their new single 'Grave Pressure', out today ahead of this weekend's headline gigs in Tāmaki Makaurau and Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Bursting from the soil born anew in the accompanying clip filmed in Berlin and directed / produced by Caity Moloney and Tom Mannion, the zombified duo of Gussie Larkin (Mermaidens) and Ezra Simons seem even more glamorous the second time round — made up and stylishly garbed for their journey into the great beyond, with the bonus addition of grit and grass.
Like cosmic beings beaming their undead anthem from outside of time and space (I'm feeling shades of the infamously spooky Sapphire & Steel finale), Earth Tongue's second studio album Great Haunting will be out on 14th June via US imprint In The Red Records, you can RSVP for the Listening Party HERE. Smash play on the video for 'Grave Pressure' made with support from NZ On Air, read Liam Hansen's conversation with the pair HERE and catch them before they venture abroad for an epic EU / UK tour, including a run of dates with Ty Segall...
"If this song was a movie, the protagonist would be trapped in a torturous space between life and death... It's totally schlocky, and we wanted a video to match that." — Gussie Larkin
