Nausicaa: Dreams Like These Album Launch

Continuing the live momentum of their recent self-run shoegaze night for Brunswick Music Festival, Nausicaa now take over Shotkickers for a debut album launch that promises to be as visceral as it is ethereal.

Known for their "explosive noise catharsis" and a fiercely independent DIY ethos, Nausicaa has spent the last year solidifying their place in the city's underground scene.

Nausicaas music exists in the tension between haunting minimalism and abrasive grit. Drawing on the ghostly melancholy of Mazzy Star and the raw, avant-garde power of PJ Harvey and Sonic Youth, their debut record, Dreams Like These, captures a band in constant evolution.

The Lineup

Idle Flowers: Ethereal soundscapes with powerful vocals, beautifully textured guitar and subtle electronic layers.

Splitlanes: Masters of hook-laden indie with a sharp, modern edge and spellbinding vocals.

Human Intrusion: Darkwave atmospheres meeting driving, rhythmic intensity and gorgeous, haunting vocals.
