PREMIERE: Melbourne's Jarface Dish Up Heavy Post-grunge With A Romantic Twist

More Jarface Jarface

Melbourne rockers Jarface have delivered another taste of their fast-approaching debut album with post-grunge single Absolution.

Although it consists of tight, loud and heavy riffs, at its core it’s a love song, inspired by one of the band members meeting their current partner on a late night out at a Smith Street bar.

"Absolution has this groove that was inspired by the blues tunes that were being played that night," the band said.

The new cut is taken from Now They See, which will drop December 8 after three years of writing and six months of record.

“It seemed fitting that a debut album which felt like forever to complete should have the title Now They See, but just every other aspect of our music; it's open to interpretation."

You can pre-order Now They See via Bandcamp.
