Slowcore indie trio Soda Boyz are crossing the ditch in support of their much anticipated second album, Not Boyz Anymore.
Arriving February 5 via Bandcamp, the album has been three years in the making. Recorded with New Zealand engineer James Goldsmith and mastered by Carl Saff, the album is sonically similar to their rip-roaring debut, Farewell Spit, while showcasing a growth in the band’s songwriting.
Often compared to similar bands such as Duster and Slint, Soda Boyz Not Boyz Anymore “is woven into the band's aging through trauma, memories, loss and coming to terms with transitioning.”
To give fans a taste of what to expect, Soda Boyz have shared the single, ‘Post Spa 2’. A hypnotic, tranquil dose of indie goodness with bird sounds and pedal effects, the track has a calming impact on the soul.
