(PR.co.nz) It’s been over two years in the making, recording in five different studios, including local hero Ben Edwards’ Sitting Room. They’ve battled through 10 000+ earthquakes, stolen equipment and a house fire but now the self-titled debut album from Christchurch’s earworm rock quintet, Lupus Lunar, is ready to be unleashed on the world.
A DIY band at heart, they aren’t afraid to use whatever is at hand, with home made guitars, amps, effects and a mysterious musical teapot all making an appearance on this labour
of love.
The album includes singles Blood Like Rust, Back To The Ocean, Rabbit On The Moon and new single Company Of Wolves along with 9 other tracks and is available on bandcamp.
Lupus Lunar’s high energy live show has seen them share stages with Beastwars, The Unfaithful Ways, Von Voin Strum and The Eastern. As well as playing Chartfest ’11 & ’12 and the Lyttleton Festival of Lights.
