New Song Obsession: "Cassandra" by The Galvatrons

The Galvatrons are back with “Cassandra,” the latest single tiding us over until the lads release their debut album Laser Graffiti on June 5. The synthesisers give this a distinctly Van Halen feel, which is a very good thing. I have no clue how much the lads are spending on their clips these days, but the floating cubes in this one are impressive! Play it loud!

The Galvatrons Ready for Another Aussie Tour

One of Australia’s most energetic live acts, The Galvatrons, are heading back on the road. The Melbourne lads will tour the East Coast in support of “Cassandra,” the latest single from their upcoming debut album Laser Graffiti.

“Cassandra” picks up right where “When we were Kids” left off, with its chunky guitar chords and sing-along chorus. The track, like the rest of the album, was produced and mixed by the formidable Scott Horscroft (The Presets, The Panics, Silverchair, The Sleepy Jackson).

“Cassandra” will be available online from April 6, with Laser Graffiti to follow on June 5. If you’ve never seen The Galvatrons play live, make sure you catch them this time around. And if you have seen one show, I know you’ll be back for more! Here are all the dates!
