New Zealand’s fuzz, loud
guitar, rock ‘n’ roll kings The
Datsuns have handpicked support acts for their New
Zealand December shows.
Joining them in Auckland, Wellington and Napier is loud, fast and young
rockers The
Cavemen who promise to deliver high energy, psychotic, teen
delinquent rock 'n' roll imbibing from the altar of Little Richard and the
Stooges. And sharing the stage in Christurch will be local hard
rock four piece Pieces
Of Molly who will deliver a killer riff heavy show
where thunderous bass lines prowl menacingly underneath crunchy twin guitar grooves.

The Datsuns are hitting the

Seizing the opportunity of
being in the same city, The
Datsuns wrote and recorded Deep Sleep - the
groups 6th studio album - in a blistering fast ten days at Roundhead
Studios in Auckland last summer. The result is a sonic explosion that arrives,
lights the place on fire, then leaves, all within the space of 34 minutes.
Deep Sleep which
was released in October this year elaborates on the bands signature
breakneck-paced rock ’n’ roll delving into more menacing terrain summoned from
the bands collective proto-metal 70s influences; Black Sabbath, Deep Purple,
Blue Oyster Cult and Bloodrock, to name a few. Semi-tones are thrown in amongst
blues scale riffs creating a darker, more evil sound that summons images of
1970s cult film super-villains.
‘An album for all the
family - if your family are weird and loud" - Classic Rock 7 out of 10
7 out 10 - NME
“ .. Deep sleep is both
trippy & brutal .. “ - Sydney Morning Herald 4 out 5 stars
