Next Friday, October 3rd marks the released of New Zealand rockers The Datsuns’ new LP Deep Sleep. 

Seizing the opportunity of being in the same city, Deep Sleep was written and recorded in a blistering fast ten days at Roundhead Studios in Auckland last summer. The result is a sonic explosion that arrives, lights the place on fire, then leaves, all within the space of 34 minutes.

Singer/bassist Dolf de Borst explains, “We’re not fucking around. We’re all conscious of the fact that we don’t live close to each other and we’re getting older and people have families, so if we’re together, we’re going to make records.”

To celebrate the release of the new album, The Datsuns have announced an Australian tour that will see the Kiwi rockers travel around the country this December.

You can hear the LP right now, ahead of its release in its entirety below.
