SCREENSAVER โTHREE LENS APPROACHโ ALBUM LAUNCH W/ TONGUE DISSOLVER / LOTHARIO / ARMOUR
Melbourne/Naarm post-punk band screensaver launch their third album โThree Lens Approachโ at The Tote on November 15th.
Taking cues from the late 70โs and early 80โs, screensaver delivers a third LP that builds on its predecessors. Asymmetrical song structures are propelled forward by a more than danceable rhythm section weaving through polyrhythms of classic synth sounds and frenetic guitars.
The albumโs theme is power; how we wield it through language and action, how society is affected by existing power structures, the consequences of the absence of it and how we harness it, as individuals and as the collective.
The lyrics explore the theme through societal observation, miniature character portraits and vignettes of stolen scenes from everyday life/conversations. Weighty themes delivered via dark but danceable music.
Recorded by Julian Cue and mastered by Casey Rice.
'Three Lens Approachโ is released via Poison City Records on November 7.
Tickets, $25

Joining screensaver at The Tote:
Armour
a Naarm based rock band playing romantic songs for dark times with soaring vocals over modulated guitars. The band put out a killer demo last year, listen here:

Lothario
Bored and horny getting dumber by the day... Lothario is a raw outpouring of late night hedonism, a cathartic exploration of betrayal, booze, boyfriends, and bullies offering a momentary escape from self-doubt and vulnerability. Punk anthems for the bored and reckless and love letters to losers. Filled with an unfiltered intensity to make you rage until daybreak. Fresh off the back off a coast to coast USA tour playing Gonerfest, U4 and Jacumba Breakdown! Check their latest LP here:

Tongue Dissolver
Multi genre maestros bring their dark brand of confrontation to the Tote, not to be missed! Stew Magazine has this to say about them: โTongue Dissolver are a rave punk trio from Naarm, layering anti-capitalist rants atop piles and piles of drums, โTongue Dissolver are guerilla operators, waging asymmetrical combat against the usual expectations of the scene... they are that once-in-a-while act that completely cuts through the saturationโ
