Opposite Sex Return With New Album 'High Drama'

Heard recently on Wet Specimen's insta-classic debut album Wet Dreamin', Ōtepoti songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Lucy Hunter also co-fronts Opposite Sex alongside Tim Player (Ov Pain) and Reg Norris (also of Wet Specimen). They unveiled their first long player in nearly five years High Drama over the weekend — squalling up discombobulating waves of string-tangled (yet somehow also very catchy) guitars and pounding percussive thunks, while dispensing equally brain-peeling lyricism with a casual mastery that'll send pretenders scrambling for cover. Recorded, mixed and mastered by Tom Bell in the other-dimensional, time-warping realm known as Port Chalmers, High Drama sounds like it could have come from nowhere else.
