SONIC MASALA: Up In The National Parks

Up In The National Parks

Brooklyn's Big Ups keep amping the excitement factor for their incoming record Before A Million Universes. New off the ranks is 'National Parks', sonically feeling like a brooding Slint bender that explodes in a punk howl fury. The anger rises, the power multiplies, the noise amplifies. Their voice only grows louder, more disenchanted with what the have's are handing down to us, constantly blindsided by expectation and reality, but refusing to lie down and take this confusing fucked-up world in a cage of confusion. Can't tell you how much I am looking forward to this one. You can pre-order Before A Million Universes from Tough Love/Exploding In Sound here.

About

It was early on a Sunday morning at ATP - A Nightmare Before Christmas 2009. After downing a fair few, at 4am we decided to cook a curry. It was during the consumption of this drunkenly delicious breakfast treat that we decided to actually do something about the music we talk about all the time.

So we started a blog – and Sonic Masala was born. Now into its seventh year, the blog has spread out to call both Australia and the UK its home (and the rest of the world), and has expanded to include gigs, festivals and a record label under its black umbrella. Come on, eat the noize.

If an mp3 is up here, it's because we have been talking about it, and think the whole world needs to know more. It's there to give you a little taste. Then, if you like, check out the band live and spend all your hard earned cash on their records. If we've posted up an mp3 of your stuff and you're not too keen on the idea, let us know and we'll happily take it down pronto.
