Music News - Nuggiez Announce New Full-Length Album - Due Out June 10th
11 May 2022 - 0 Comments
Entrenched social
chaos and systemic failure delivered by capitalism’s inability to respond
rationally to fundamental material issues is becoming more and more evident and
palpable to all of us.
In their first release since 2018, Tāmaki Makaurau’s Nuggiez have put together
a selection of tracks detailing the chaos that increasingly swirls around us
while attempting to draw focus to the structural defects that repeatedly and
consistently deliver it.
For over 5 years Nuggiez have pursued creative evolution while always retaining
a sum-of-their-parts mentality in song-writing, a DIY approach in their
production processes and a commitment to constantly sharpening their social
commentary in the truest spirit and tradition of punk. Their new album marks a
convergence of these efforts for the band, who have attempted to embrace the
necessity of creative evolution, resulting in their longest-running, most
conceptually focused and stylistically diverse release yet.
Following the release of their 2018 EP Holocene Ruina, Nuggiez parted ways with
founding bassist Benjamin Wright, taking up an offer from fellow D.I.Y traveler
Martin Phillips to fill the void. With this latest release, Phillips’
contribution has proven undeniably essential to the band’s growth.
Toil In The Time of Monsters is an attempt to go beyond repetitive
anti-establishment punk clichés, representing a nascent phenomenon of sincere,
culturally momentous commentary and sonically diverse, explorative heavy music.
Toil In The Time of Monsters is due out June 10th, with a release
party at Whammy Bar on Saturday June 11th. The album will be available on all
major streaming platforms as well as on vinyl, with a limited-run 12” release
due out the same day.
