Rollerball Announce ‘Lost in Space’ 20th Anniversary Tour Dates

rollerball

Earlier this year, Brisbane-based heavy rockers Rollerball marked the 20th anniversary of their debut album, Lost in Space, by reissuing it on deluxe-edition vinyl. Bonus tracks, remaster, new art, the whole deal. And if you don’t know the record, it’s of its era in all the right ways, rocking with that no-way-the-entire-world-is-about-to-go-to-shit-forever style of abandon that came with the proposition that indeed we were all living in a computer simulacrum of society. If that had been true, doubtless someone would’ve pulled out the cartridge and blown in it by now to remove the dust — because, yes, society would be running on an 8-bit Nintendo — but Rollerball would still represent Aus well during a MySpace era that’s lost to the digital ether like so much private press vinyl of a generation prior. But nothing’s ever really gone. It’s just waiting for a new pressing.

Rollerball‘s for Lost in Space is well earned, and to further celebrate the anniversary of the album, they’ll embark on a tour this October along the East Coast of Australia, playing what are reportedly their first shows in a decade. And if you’re thinking to yourself, “golly that sounds like fun,” I have no doubt it will be.

To wit:
