Beloved Australian five-piece POND offer a skerrick of  hope in a hostile world with their new record - their  11th - Terrestrials. A cyclone of urgent, scorched  earth rock’n’roll, Terrestrials tips the hat to the sounds  of then while squarely facing up to the here and now.  Conceived from a place of reverence for a particularly  potent epoch in Oz rock, Terrestrials mines the sound  of open sky melancholia, heat haze sizzling on the  plains and jangly pub backrooms that hits an eternally  poignant nerve for anyone familiar with the sound,  time and place. Like much of the Pond catalogue, Terrestrials is a  record of people and place, of exploring the identity  of each, as well as where and how they intersect and  interact. Terrestrials twitches with the desperation of  people and planet on the brink, but ultimately bets on  the beauty of both to prevail. “This one is hitting me this morning. It's got all this  strutting, preening glam-rock/new wave energy, but  it's too weird and oblique to play as pure pastiche." – Stereogum on “Terrestrials
