Approved: Earth Tongue

The five year wait for Earth Tongue’s second album is almost up, with ‘Great Haunting’ set to arrive this summer. Out now is the first single from the LP ‘Bodies Dissolve Tonight’, which shows off their fuzzy psych-rock sound perfectly and might just make them your new favourite band

Approved: Earth Tongue

New Zealand duo Earth Tongue released their debut album ‘Floating Being’ in 2019, establishing their fuzzed up psych-rock sound with twin vocals from guitarist Gussie Larkin and drummer Ezra Simons. 

Things have subsequently been largely quiet on the recordings front, with 2022 single ‘Miraculous Death’ their only release since then. That’s all about the change though, with the arrival of new track ‘Bodies Dissolve Tonight!’ and the announcement of their second album ‘Great Haunting’.

Despite the five year gap, the new single doesn’t deviate far from the sound of that debut album. But when you nailed it so hard first time around, why would you? “It's been a long time coming but we hope that you'll agree it's been worth the wait”, they say. And indeed it is.

‘Bodies Dissolve Tonight!’ kicks in with fast-paced ferocity, briefly holding itself back before going all in again. It’s an immediately exciting experience that will have you hankering for their live show. Luckily, they have UK dates coming up in May, including performances at Desertfest and The Great Escape.
