Sulfate Announce 'Godzone' Album Release Tour
Raising the bar formidably high as openers for the Flying Nun Records Auckland Town Hall 40th Anniversary celebration just over two weeks back, Sulfate have announced a five date nationwide tour marking the launch of their second album Godzone. Now officially the powerhouse trio of founder Peter Ruddell (Wax Chattels), Hariet Ellis (Na Noise, Dick Move) and David Harris (Princess Chelsea), Sulfate unveiled the charred sonic panorama that is lead single 'Crossing' last month, and their imminent new record is set to paint an unsettling portrait of Aotearoa New Zealand — launching via the aforementioned legendary imprint on 10th September. Support artists will be revealed in the weeks ahead, but don't wait even a second to lock in the dates below, including an appearance at Tāmaki Makaurau's super-stacked The Others Way 2021 festival. Heed their advice and bring earplugs...

Press release:
Auckland noise-rock trio, Sulfate, have announced their Godzone Album Release Tour, making their way around “God’s Own Country” in the second half of September, with this show going down on Sunday 26th September at Wine Cellar, in Auckland.
From the inception of the band the ethos has always been to create intensity through restraint, and they have developed a live reputation for “startling, sonorous… crushing yet considered” performances (AmbientLightBlog). Sonically, things develop slowly, creating an atmosphere and mood that “invades the subconscious” (Graham Reid) before the crushing noise sets in. It is highly recommended that you BYO earplugs.
Support acts for all shows are to be announced in the coming weeks — and tickets are available now
