POND 'HOBO ROCKET' STREAMING VIA NPR
ALBUM AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER
The beast has been unleashed. Pond's fifth psych freak-out exploration, Hobo Rocket, is now streaming via NPR's First Listen, ahead of its US release next Tuesday, August 6th.
For those in the UK, NME is hosting a stream of the album here.
Hobo Rocket is the fifth LP from Perth, Australia based five-piece Pond. Made up of Nick Allbrook, Jay Watson, Cam Avery, Joseph Ryan and Jamie Terry, the band set out to make a record that captures a portion of rock music's great, decadent history through a personal lens. Known for their brutally raucous live shows, Pond have captured that intensity on record, cramming as much loose, live emotion into a 40 minute album as possible.
