Australia's DZ Deathrays have shared new single "Pollyanna" ahead of their UK/EU co-headline tour with Dune Rats.
"Pollyanna" is dizzyingly fun mosh fodder, with whirring riffs puncturing a serrated punk melee. The Aussie duo make a massive racket pumped with joy and hedonistic hooks - it's super catchy, super loud, and it'll have you bouncing off the walls in an instant.
The tune follows "Blood On My Leather", which arrived back in February.
DZ Deathrays are currently working on their third record with producer and longtime collaborator Burke Reid - of the criminally underrated Gerling.
