Black Sand, fronted by Anthony Evans, New Zealand’s master of light-handed lysergic cosmic bliss has filtered in a new extended play (under 30 minutes) offering that’s relentlessly tight, sonically pure, and resounds with a fullness that penetrates to the core of your very being.

You’ll instantly be confronted by the presentation of Anthony’s lyrics, where this time out, he steps forward, allowing his vocals to ride with an equality to the music, still inseparable from his slow ebbing ever-flowering notes, notes that bathe you in pastoral tranquility.

Nightmares In The Afternoon – ‘An Omen In Fancy Robes’ (2024). Nightmares In The Afternoon’s debut album hits like a ghost from the swinging 60s, rattling its melodic chains in the most irresistible ways. With ex-Polite Society members at the helm, this record feels like it slipped through a time warp—a sparkling homage to an era when clever hooks and jangly guitars ruled the airwaves. Just look at the cover photo and you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about.
