Earthbong Announce Australian Tour Dates
German bong/tone worshipers Earthbong will travel to Australia to tour next April. They’ll be in the company of Oz natives Lucifungus for the going, and the run will encompass seven shows across 15 days, assuring that there’s due travel time and maybe even room for a bit of exist-in-a-place instead of the usual show-up-and-wait-for-the-show. In any case, it’s the trip of a lifetime for a band, and Earthbong will go supporting last year’s Church of Bong (review here), which was released through Black Farm Records and Evil Noise Recordings. I don’t know any of these places — can’t help but note the Sydney stop shares its name with the venerable OG German heavyfest Stoned From the Underground — but I know that if you get the chance to go to Australia, you go. Maybe it’s less of a thing from Europe, but from my view it’s awesome that Earthbong get to do this at all. If I was in a band and we toured Australia, I’d have a hard time ever thinking of the project as less than successful again. It’s that kind of thing.
Lucifungus released their Lucifungus 4 album last year and are also signed to Black Farm. The shows are sure to be very, very heavy and correspondingly dank. Australia’s reputation for hospitality means I don’t feel like I need to remind anyone to give welcome to a traveling underground band, but if you’re in the path, I can only urge you to consider it as a way to obliterate a night.
