Anamanaguchi will bring with them their latest record, ***Anyway***, which came about from the same uncertainty they faced in their 2019 album ***[USA]***, a record that turned the band's digital language toward the physical world: American dread, internet overload, national identity, and the strange and terrifying feeling of living inside systems too big to see. With digital textures, glitched production and vast EDM landscapes, Anamanaguchi portrayed a world that no longer felt human but showed the joy, excitement and emotion that could still overflow from those constraints.
 
The digital rock band formed mostly in New York City had always called the internet their "hometown", but they no longer saw that as a badge of honor. *Anyway* is a band-first album: the sound of four friends living inside an inhuman war machine, believing in each other and reaching to the outside world. It also happens to rock.
 
Since their starting days on online forums, Anamanaguchi have been pushing the limits of what "counts" as a band: programming music on video game consoles, releasing free EPs through netlabels, headlining festivals in **Minecraft**, collaborating with **Hatsune Miku**, **Rocket League**, and the wider culture of games, platforms, and screens. But on *Anyway* they decided to go to the opposite end of their online upbringing: taking on the forgotten annals of emo, punk, and indie music to make something that could only be made by friends in a room: fuzzy guitars, strained vocals, group harmonies, explosive drums, and melodies that feel less like escapism than survival. The result is the band's most direct and human record yet. Their hypermelodic style takes a backseat to simplicity believing that even inside the machine, something real can still happen. They are currently preparing ***ANYWAY FOR REAL***, a version of *Anyway* where the aliens of the digital world invade their analog island fortress.

Don't miss the chance to experience one of music's most inventive bands live for the very first time in Australia.
