Overview
After two years of hiding in self-determined obscurity, New Zealand’s Cut Off Your Hands are back, and they’ve aged well. During their hiatus they’ve been drawing inspiration from the likes of The Go-Betweens to The Triffids and The Church, and their latest effort Hollow is a matured redefinition of the power pop/post-punk sound that defined the Kiwi band on their 2008 debut of You and I. They’ve been hailed by hipster tastemakers NME as ‘the next Blur, only better’ – and if you don’t believe NME, download their newest single You Should Do Better (it’s free, and totes legal) and hear for yourself – the proof is in the charming riffs!
Cut Off Your Hands’ comeback this year is set to be a big one, taking out a coveted slot in this year’s Splendour in the Grass lineup. But before they take on Woodfordia, they’re coming to Lambda. Get a taste of Hollow before its official release in July, see them this Thursday!
