Sydney Rock Four-Piece super FLORENCE jam Announces New Record "60 Big Ones"
Influential but long-dead Sydney rock four-piece super FLORENCE jam no longer exist – but, undeterred, they will nevertheless release a new record: 60 Big Ones, out November 15, 2024 on Bird's Robe Records.
Recorded in 2012, lost for a decade and then unearthed by sleepmakeswaves’ Alex Wilson for final overdubs in 2023, 60 Big Ones captures the band in a mood that is exuberant, melancholy and anthemic.
Revisiting and advancing their themes of ennui, lust and the passage of time, it further hones the band’s unique sound—with noise pop, revamped garage rock, 60s harmonies, paranoid bluesy rave-ups and at least one explosion thrown into the mix—and adds a raft of new songs to complement their EPs super FLORENCE jam and We Always Knew It Would Come To This as well as their live album You’ve Had It Too Easy For Too Long.
The band comments: "It’s not quite right to say that this EP will take you back to 2012. It is completely timeless. It serves as a greatest hits compilation because our best work was usually our most recent, and it’s called 60 Big Ones because each one of these songs is worth ten normal songs.
We are indebted to sleepmakeswaves’ Alex Wilson, without whom this 21 minutes and 27 seconds of us contending with our younger selves would never have seen the light of day. We would also like to thank everyone this EP is for – whoever you are. Here lies super FLORENCE jam … still alive."
60 Big Ones is out November 15, 2024 via Bird’s Robe Records on streaming services and CD.
