Sydney six-piece Tropical Zombie have won me over with their brand new single “Call The Police.”
Apparently the band recorded it in the back of a Central Coast café; that’s certainly given it a more spontaneous energy than so many recordings. It feel like one of those classic singles that was recorded in one take, capturing a moment where the stars aligned perfectly.
“Call the Police” comes from Tropical Zombie’s debt album, which should drop in the middle of the year. You can hear some of the tracks when the band plays shows all around the country over the next couple of months. Many of the gigs are free, so there’s no excuse for staying home!
