Australian Dream

Regular price $40.00
Wollongong’s DIY garage punks HOON return with full-throttle debut studio album ‘Australian Dream’.Out April 14th.

With their overly-animated live shows punctuated by relentless punk-dynamics and uncompromising on-stage energy, Hoon are a band who frequently skirt the line between the maniacal and total mayhem, with a punk-rock attitude to match. Leaving no stone unturned, their debut studio album ‘Australian Dream’ captures this live performance energy synchronised with their chaotic song writing on record for the first time, deliberating life in modern Australia over 11 intense tracks. Produced at The Brain Studios Sydney with Clayton Segelov, sonically the record ricochets between the crucial sounds of ‘90s rock pioneers, to surf punk thrillers and dynamic five-minute progressive ballads with hints of psychedelia and sludge metal. Lyrically the tracks make both abstract, and bluntly clear references to Australian culture and politics, consumerism, love, learning, toxic masculinity, mental/physical health and a growth into adulthood. These themes are addressed through the aggressive, yet powerfully joyous and dynamic delivery of the record, often coupled with sarcasm, humour and a touch of irreverence to make light of the difficult world we’re all trying to navigate.
