Lifted from their forthcoming album Roads, Stars, 'Park Bench Gods' is a raucous, full-throttle return to form that captures the essence of what made Asteroid B-612 an underground cult favourite. Recorded in both Australia and Spain throughout 2024, the single is pure, unfiltered rock ‘n’ roll, built to get you moving - whether you're in the pit or your living room.
The track features the blistering guitar work of band founder, guitarist and songwriter Johnny Casino, alongside the unmistakable raw and soulful vocals of original frontman Grant McIver (from the band’s first three albums). Long-time drummer Ben Fox (a member since 1993) brings his signature locomotive groove, rounding out a rhythm section bolstered by new members Xabi Garre (guitar - Señor No, Roy Loney, Cheetah Chrome) and Juancho Lopez (bass - Paul Collins, Peralta, Kurt Baker Combo).
Emerging from the Australian underground in the early ’90s, Asteroid B-612 became known for their no-compromise approach to rock, blending Detroit punk energy, Aussie pub rock soul, and garage rock grit. From sweaty pub shows across Australia to their cult following in the U.S.A and Europe, the band became a seminal name in underground rock circles, known for their high-octane live performances, explosive guitar work, and raw, heartfelt songwriting.
Now, with 'Park Bench Gods,' the band sounds as urgent and vital as ever - ready to reignite dancefloors and dive bars worldwide. Get ready. Hit play. And wear your dancin’ shoes
