AURAS

Long awaited debut album from Brisbane's soaring shoegaze 6-piece.
AURAS by DEAFCULT, is a record about dreams; the ghosts of people, places
and situations past that haunt our nights sleep, or lack-thereof.
After quickly selling out of their 2015 demo reissued by Blackwire Records on
LP, completing numerous runs of shows around the country already,
anticipation is high for this debut. It reflects on romanticised memories as a
disaffected teenager in the suburbs, tales of love, drugs, death, and the
overwhelming feeling of finding yourself but still feeling completely lost.
The 12 songs that make up AURAS are wrapped in noisey guitars, blunted
drums, fuzzed-out synth and soaring vocals. While on paper it might sound
initially abrasive, there is an overwhelming sense of gentleness to
DEAFCULT's music that you find calm in, even when they push past the
boundaries of abstraction - even when you find yourself deep in AURAS
most distorted moments.
