UK post-punk five piece Shame have announced headline dates of Australia and New Zealand. The band will step in to replace Wunderhorse in support of Fontaines D.C. on their forthcoming tour as well as headline performances in Sydney, Melbourne and Wellington.
Originally hailed by The Guardian as “2018’s angriest, shoutiest young British guitar band” Shame’s most recent release Food for Worms is a sonic departure from anything they’ve done before. It careened and crashed into life faster than anything the band had created previously: a weapon-grade cocktail that captured all the gristle and fragility that earned them their merits.
Produced by Flood (U2, PJ Harvey, Nick Cave) the album sees shame abandon their post-punk beginnings for far more eclectic influences, drawing from the tense atmospherics of Merchandise, the sharp yet uncomplicated lyrical observations of Lou Reed and the more melodic works of 90s German band, Blumfeld.
New Sounds Magazine reflected recently that Shame has “risen their heads above the parapet of post-punk pyrotechnics,” with their live shows evolving from “entertaining to unmissable.” Let that serve as a warning.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
