Gold Coast five-piece Radolescent have treated fans with the announcement of their sophomore EP, Excellent People. The punk surf-rock outfit have shared a brand new track, Home, continuing their distinct fusion of punk influences with fuzzy rock sonics.
Speaking of the track, frontman Isaac Atkinson shares: “I grew up in Surfers Paradise, a once popular holiday destination that has now faded into the abyss. A city which has been forgotten much like the streets of Kuta in Bali, although instead of local Indonesians selling rip off watches, it’s people with hard luck stories filled of violence and drug abuse. Home depicts a night ajar, where I was under the influence of Acid and things got a little out of control. Experiencing weird encounters with people and my own psyche leading to a meltdown that calls for a chorus of “I’m going home”.
Radolescent took advantage of their new-found free time throughout 2020, recording and mixing their sophomore EP, bringing in close friend and Beddy Rays drummer Ben Wade to track the drums. Conceptually, the release is set to explore growing up, the long-term consequences of past actions and reflect on their fast-paced lifestyles.
Excellent People is out July 22. Listen to Home below.
