Deafcult

The highlights from Deafcult’s ripping album launch set at Ghost Tropic, Brisbane.

"Their pillowy mixture of emo, crushing dream pop and '90s-inflected guitar noodling sounded immediate and invigorating."

"For me, I do care about what I’m doing with this band but I don’t really care about what others think about it. And I don’t think that’s a bad thing."

Slowdive ain't got nothing on Deafcult!

"After a while, everything starts to fade away and you're left floating inside someone else's dream."

"Shows like this can help us harness negative energy and feed it into pursuits of empathy and solidarity."

"It's a fitting birthday celebration for this fine outfit, drunken and vaguely debaucherous but with everyone staggering home happy and only mildly damaged."
