Sunken Seas "Glass" Album Release Tour

Under the Radar Presents
Sunken Seas ‘Glass’ Album Release Tour

With their recent blistering new album Glass in tow, Auckland-based post-punk upstarts Sunken Seas are charting their most impressive territory yet. This October, Sunken Seas are taking to the road to bring their scorching new record to stages around the country.

Now two LPs and one EP into their career, the band have established themselves as a fixture in the international shoegaze scene, offering a glacial, intoxicating slant on the long-lived virtues of post-punk.

With an abrasive live show awash with impressive physicality as they play out their carnal dirges, Sunken Seas are unwilling to shy away from the stage like many of their shoe-gazing counterparts. Multiple tours of New Zealand, Australia and Japan have sprung from the band's diligent efforts and bubbling interest, supporting the likes of The Black Angels, Wooden Shjips, Bailterspace and John Cooper Clarke.

It all kicks off at Wellington’s Valhalla on 17 October and then later in October the band hit the deep South, playing Christchurch’s Darkroom on 30 October, and Dunedin’s Chick’s Hotel for a suitably creepy Halloween show on 31 October. It all rounds off at Sunken Seas’ current city of residence, Auckland, on 6 November at Wine Cellar. Don’t be afraid to get caught in the undertow - catch Sunken Seas on a stage in your town before the waves get too big to ride.
