Earth Tongue is a heavy psych rock two-piece from Wellington, New Zealand. Guitarist
Gussie Larkin is a master of the fuzz-smothered riff, and along with Ezra Simons’ off-kilter drumming, they’ve been sending punters into transcendental states since their emergence in 2016. Their debut album Floating Being (Stolen Body Records, 2019) has quickly become an underground hit, seeing them embark on multiple tours across Australasia and Europe in the years since its release. Along the way they’ve picked up high praise from BBC Radio6, Bandcamp and headbangers all over the world. Earth Tongue’s live show is a powerful, cult-like experience - the perfect mix of throw-your-horns-up heavy, and can’t-stop-listening catchy. This is affirmed by the high caliber support slots they've been offered recently including IDLES, Ty Segall, King Woman, Kikagaku Moyo and Queens of the Stone Age.
Earth Tongue first debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Albums on 24 June 2024 with the album Great Haunting. There is one entry by Earth Tongue in the charts.
