The time has arrived for The New Existentialists to unleash Last Days of the Internet.

"These are the last days of the Internet
It’s broken now"

Fortunately it's not completely broken, so you are able to listen to The New Existentialists' new 5-track EP, which is out now.

You can see them play it live this weekend too:
The Changing Same - The New Existentialists - Sam Loveridge
Room 1
72/2 Onehunga Mall, Auckland

Formed in West Auckland circa 2012 by songwriting legend George Henderson, and named after one of English philosopher Colin Wilson's primary themes, The New Existentialists could be best described as a mix of “freakbeat, softcore, and austere psychedelia”.

The video to the title track is also out now, directed by photographer Hayley Theyers and filmmaker Andrew Moore.

Hayley Theyers has also made videos for Tidal Rave, My Anatomy, and The Puddle, and in 2017, for NZ Music Month she presented Musicians of Aotearoa, a series of portraits made into posters featuring Bill Direen, the late Peter Gutteridge, George Henderson and Chris Knox amongst others. Theyers also created the cover art for the Last Days of the Internet EP.

Andrew Moore has made videos for a great roll-call of bands including The D4, Street Chant, and The 3Ds. Moore also directed the King Loser film The Legend of King Loser (due for release next year), and the cult skate classic No More Heroes.

The Last Days of the Internet EP was recorded and produced by Matthew Heine (S.P.U.D., Solid Gold Hell), who also contributed guitar to a couple of tracks. Heine's previous recording credits include The 3Ds, Into the Void, Straitjacket Fits and The Checks.

The Last Days of the Internet EP is out now on Bandcamp, and will be available soon on other digital platforms, and on CD via Powertool Records.
