Earlier this year, Aussie rock act Kisschasy revealed they were getting the band back together and hitting the road in support of the first-ever vinyl pressing of their hit album, Hymns for the Nonbelievers.
Released in 2007, the album was a huge success, peaking at #5 on the ARIA Album Chart and producing the hit singles ‘Opinions Won't Keep You Warm at Night’, ‘Spray on Pants’, ‘Strings and Drums’ and ‘Ugly Birds in a Beautiful Cage’.
Now the lads have dropped new single, ‘Lie To Me’, their first release in more than a decade. Anyone who grew up with Kisschasy will be instantly transported back to the early ‘00s when the band was at its peak.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Kisschasy vocalist Darren Corduex had this to say about the new track, “It’s got that energy, that cheeky lyricism – it just sounds like us. It came to me right after a bout of writer’s block. I came back and just grabbed it from the ether.”
During the chat, Corduex also revealed the band had been recording more music and there’s a strong chance a new Kisschasey album could be on the way.

“Our last tour proved that the special connection we have with our fans is alive and stronger than ever,” the band said in a statement. “We’ve been counting down the minutes until we can get back onto the stage and there’s no better reason than having our second album Hymns For The Nonbeliever released on vinyl for the very first time. As a band we are tighter and more focused than we’ve ever been, and these shows will be proof of that. There may even be some surprises.”
Kisschasy will be joined on tour by Perth’s indie-punk rockers Sly Withers and Melbourne’s indie rocker Suzi.
Catch Kisschasy at Hindley Street Music Hall on Saturday, June 7. Tickets on sale now via moshtix.com.au.
