The DC3 will release their debut album The Future Sound of Nostalgia on September 1. The album will contain the single I Was The Guy In TISM and live favourite Henry Fucking Wagons.
The Future Sound of Nostalgia is available to pre-order from www.thedc3.com.au now.
To celebrate the release, they’re touring nationally (dates below). In Melbourne and Hobart, they will be joined by Pinky Beecroft’s Circus Of Life – Pinky Beecroft’s new 10 piece band (including backup singers The Nymphs) who will be playing some of Machine Gun Fellatio’s hits.
This is their debut album as The DC3, although the three members of The DC3 worked together on Damian Cowell’s solo album “Vs Art”, created for the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA).
The three members of The DC3 got together in the nominally alt-country outfit “ROOT!” for two albums. That project ended, and now they’re back, just the three of them, sans cowboy hats, pseudonyms, or real drummers. Now it’s funky beats, weird sci-fi guitar and a singer who comes on like Nick Cave if he’d stayed in Wangaratta and worked at Blockbuster Video.
To launch The Future Sound of Nostalgia, The DC3 are touring nationally with a show that usually includes installation art, spoken word monologues, and slabs of flat-out disco nonsense.
