Bad//Dreems Share “Black Monday” Video & Announce European & UK Tour

Following the release of their epic new album, HOO HA!, Adelaide’s Bad//Dreems have announced a run of European and UK tour dates, visiting venues across the UK in London, Brighton, Bristol, Manchester, and Glasgow this September. The band also release a new live video today for one of HOO HA!’s most upbeat tracks, the punk-infused Black Monday, that was shot in their rehearsal space this June.

“Black Monday takes its name from the severe and unexpected market crash in Australia in the 1980s. It doesn’t really have anything to do with that, though it does have a lot to do with the greased-up rat wheel we find ourselves straddling daily, and man’s obsession to backslap and handshake our way to a tumultuous future”. (singer Ben Marwe)

Only a fool would disagree with Marwe in the current climate that we are all witnessing worldwide. The subject matter here is just one theme spelled out across HOO HA! tackling thoughtworthy home truths concerning Australia’s questionable history, and where it goes next. A theme that Bad//Dreems’ fans across the world can also now relate to.

Songs for HOO HA! were compiled in the incinerator, taken to Melbourne, and recorded with Dan Luscombe at Soundpark Studio. The result epitomises the power of Bad//Dreems literate pub rock, and where high and low culture collides to paint a vivid picture of our current times. You can experience Bad//Dreems’ energetic live show on their UK Tour this September with tickets available here from 10 am Friday 7th July.
