Party Dozen have given fans another taste of their upcoming new album 21 Bum Salute, out Friday 6 November via CITY SLANG, with pummeling final single 'Full Powers'.

This is noise-pop of the highest order, with Party Dozen continuing to experiment with song structure, delivering a frantic three minutes of distorted vocals, driving percussion, rock riffs and screeching sax that never lets up.

On the single, Party Dozen shares: "There's 'Full Powers' good and there's 'Full Powers' bad. The good is when you're personally becoming too powerful, an angel pisses on you, everything is going very well and suddenly you're gliding down the street like King Swinging Dick.

"The bad is when one side has all the power and more is not enough. Powerlust, greedmongering, gluttonous fiends. This track switches between the two. It has a really strong, confident feel that gets a little uneasy as the track progresses."

21 Bum Salute is the fifth record from Kirsty Tickle (saxophone, vocals) and Jonathan Boulet (drums, loops, production) and was written, recorded, performed, mixed and mastered by the duo.

"We're having more fun than we've ever had before," says Tickle. "This album is kind of putting a middle finger up and waving at someone with a smile at the same time. We're egging you on to have a good time."

Boulet adds, "It's like we just don't care anymore. But in the best way."

Keen to share their new album with fans, Party Dozen are hitting the road in November on an Australian tour.

The duo's upcoming tour begins in Adelaide at the Ed Castle on Thursday 5 November, followed by shows at Brisbane's The Brightside on Friday 6 November, Sydney's Crowbar on Saturday 7 November, Castlemaine's The Bridge on Wednesday 11 November and Melbourne's Night Cat on Friday 13 November, with the final show at Whalers Hotel in Warrnambool on Saturday 14 November.
