Leaders of the Manawatū Renaissance Khaki Department have been steadily instilling their searing shoegaze anthems across Te Ika-a-Maui throughout 2024, crafting a widely regarded and memorable live performance. With a signature sound defined by waterlogged pedal boards, ripping guitar melodies and cavernous synthscapes all tightly bound together by sludgey basslines and playfully heavy drumming, the band are excited to play tracks off their forthcoming full length album set for release in October.
Dynamic alt-rock quartet Pining Radiata are making themselves known for their brooding sound, evocative lyrics and poignant hooks.Their debut EP ‘Skin’ was recorded shortly after their formation and packages together the band’s polarity between moments of fragility and blistering distortion. Intense guitar freak-outs, fuzz laden Rhodes, swirling delay loops and yearnful vocal harmonies are all on the menu for the Pining Radiata live set.
Eveline Breaker (Feshh) will be dialing in her scintillating and ethereal modern shoegaze. 2024 has seen Eveline Breaker collaborate with bandmate Shay Patel on ‘Scrambline Pitcher’ as well as 2 innovative singles, not to mention playing in a tent at a recent Goose Garden event. The Eveline Breaker live set is sure to be a masterclass on noisy experimental electronica.
In conjunction with the tour, the band’s have selected a handful of tracks for a 10 inch split lathe which will be available at the shows. Cut on transparent blue vinyl, the lathes are available now for pre-order via the Pining Radiata or Khaki Department instagram.
