DreamKillers Release their new CD 8th of May at The Hi Fi Bar in Brisbane, All new tracks from the Dreamkillers , When it comes to new material, It's been a long time between drinks for Brisbane thrash-punk stalwarts Dreamkillers. It’s been 12 years since the band released ‘Character Building Helltrip’, the last full-length album of original songs, which was released on Roadrunner Records. This album also marked the end of an era for that particular line-up, or at least on the studio front. Dreamkillers all but became legend in the vaults of Australian metal and punk, but as with any well-oiled creative entity, the hiatus - with all its ‘normal’ day-to-day frustrations, would only strengthen the resolve of the driving force behind the band. The results thus far are a collection of 5 tracks of trademark Dreamkillers punk-metal, with an even greater level of intensity than before. Songs of political hypocrisy, natural disaster, drug abuse, domestic violence and all the lovely topics of conversation that DK fans have come to expect. The EP, titled ‘Pockets of Water’, was recorded at Blackbox Studios with acclaimed producer Jeff Lovejoy (Powderfinger, The Cruel Sea etc), who has been instrumental in the production of earlier Dreamkillers recordings. Mastering duties took place at Modern mastering by Dave Neil. While there’s plenty of fast, metallic clout, there is also plenty of melodic phrases, and of course the poetry of Jobson cannot be described in words. Make no mistake, this is punk with a purpose – with all its danger in tact.. no fashion driven ‘nu-core’ here! ‘Pockets of Water’ will be released in Australia and New Zealand on Fri 7th May, distributed by MGM. It will also be available for download through iTunes on said date. The CD launch party is at The Hi-Fi, Brisbane on Sat 8th May, presented by ‘Renegades Empire’, with special guests Lynchmada and Punxie and the Poison Pens. The CD, which will be in a very colourful digipack format, will be available at the show, as will new merchandise. The gig will be filmed for footage for an impending filmclip, and there’s a few other surprises in store, so it’s going to be a very special night indeed.
