About

Perth indie outfit Death by Denim, known for their chaotic energy, contrasting shiny synth dance rock and brooding lyricism, have officially entered their fun era with the release of their latest EP, ‘My House Is A Club’.

The five-track EP may be a smaller dose than 2022’s Moonbow album, however they hit the ground hard spending more consecutive days in the studio than ever before, creating a cohesive set of material inspired by similar influences and ideas, which they can credit to this newfound state of flow. Drawing on inspiration from an eclectic list of artists including The Gorillaz, The Weeknd, Harry Styles, Bee Gees, Kylie Minogue, Todd Terje, Arctic Monkeys, Foals, Major Lazer, Pharrell Williams, Outkast and many more.

Death by Denim discuss, “With the past albums we were recording 3-4 songs at a time over many months, which can be confusing when you have The Weeknd on repeat in January and the Beatles in March. We were on the search for new sounds we had never encountered before and were determined to experiment as much as possible to find them, including a wall of 8 synthesisers, a new drum kit and a fresh range of effects pedals to play with at Debaser Studio, headed up by sound extraordinaire Andy Lawson.”

My House Is A Club EP reflects an anarchic state of mind, bright sparkly nights filled with madness giving way to dark dirty days filled with sadness. Sonically it’s bold, chaotic, and thumping with lyrical undertones of aimlessness masked by hedonistic nights.

2022 saw the band riding high with the release of their album Moonbow, signing to ADA, hitting the road for their largest national headline tour to date, a regional WA tour, sold-out shows in Perth, Sydney and Melbourne, and unleashing their rendition of Harry Styles’ ‘Watermelon Sugar’ for triple j’s Lika A Version.
