Bio: Following the release of their debut album, Dystopia, Midnight Juggernauts shift the focus to album number two with the release of their new single ‘This ... (more)
New Technology’.
An epic journey through time and the afterlife, 'This New Technology' never travels along the straight and narrow. It moves through 70s pop to Morricone soundscapes, dark driving toms to lush washed out jams, lo-fi to hi-fo, no-fi to dream wave, progrock to krautrock, Eno to ecstasy, the Roses to Rafferty... it's pop but not as you know it.
Produced by Midnight Juggernauts, the track was recorded at Melbourne’s Sing Sing Studios by Christopher Moore (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio, Liars) and mixed by Andy Baldwin.
Its release coincides with a national headline tour by Midnight Juggernauts across Australia, and appearances at the CMJ Music Festival in New York during October including a headline performance at the URB party.
Since the 2007 release of Dystopia Midnight Juggernauts have built a rock-solid live reputation globally playing some of the world’s finest festivals such as Glastonbury (UK), Coachella (USA), Fuji Rock (Japan), Primavera (Spain), Meredith (Australia), The Big Day Out (Australia & NZ) and they supported Justice across the US & Canada on their 2008 tour.
‘This New Technology’ will be available through iTunes on 9th October along with inspired remixes by artists including Nile Delta (Australia), Emperor Machine (UK) and Memory Tapes (USA). There will also a vinyl 7" single will be available from Acephale Records featuring the B-side "Austria".
