Melbourne indie-rockers Kingswood have unleashed their latest single ‘I Can Feel That You Don’t Love Me’ from the forthcoming album Microscopic Wars. Recorded at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, the debut long-player sees the band team up with Grammy Award winning producer Vance Powell (Jack White, Arctic Monkeys, Kings Of Leon) and is set for release Friday August 22nd.
Where its predecessor, Suckerpunch, captured the band at their fists-out-finest, rocking the infamous late-night spot Cherry Bar, ‘I Can Feel That You Don’t Love Me’ reveals Kingswood’s raw emotive side. With feverish lyrics and cool refrains, guitarist Alex Laska steps up to take over lead vocals for the first time.
The success of their first EP, Change of Heart, hurled the band onto stages across the country with their refreshing free and wild style. Known for their thrashy guitars and bluesy vocal melodies, Fergus Linacre, Alex Laska, Mango Hunter and Justin Debrincat, who have been playing in bands together since their teens, soon found themselves alongside the likes of Pearl Jam, Arcade Fire and The Deftones performing at Big Day Out, as well as winning the covered ‘Triple J Unearthed Splendour in the Grass’ competition and touring nationally for their last single, ‘Suckerpunch’.
