Brooklyn indie darlings Beach Fossils were originally slated to tour Down Under in October of 2012 but had to postpone the jaunt at the last minute, but promised they would return.
Now, true to their word, Beach Fossils will be make their way down to Melbourne and Sydney this week, finally placating their hordes of local followers who have been campaigning for so long to see their heroes in the flesh.
Beach Fossils began in 2009 as Payseur’s solo project, but before long a full band had coalesced around him to bring his dreamy washes of shoegaze to life. In 2010 they released their self-titled debut album on esteemed Brooklyn indie imprint Captured Tracks – home to fellow alternative icons such as DIIV and Wild Nothing – and soon began building a buzz for their up-tempo and visceral live shows, having long since ditched their early DIY, bedroom vibe for an aesthetic which was far more realised and substantial, berfore releasing ‘Clash The Truth’ which is out now through Inertia.
