No Zu- Heat Beat - Yellow Speckled
SKU: 747742112911
Melbourne, Australia "heat beat" icons No Zu regroup after the passing of vocalist Daphne Camf, to release their first new original music since 2016. No Zu have played Barcelona's Primavera Festival, performed live on French television, and toured Australia with no wave icons ESG and James Chance. Led by the magnetic, tireless Nicolaas Oogjes, No Zu's multi-limbed, mutant punk funk has evolvedover the last decade to make them one of Australia's most distinctive and debauched groups. Daphne's passing in 2021 left a huge hole in the band, and they fell into a long silence. Now they return with an EP featuring her final recordings with the group. Heat Beat, named after the band's own trademarked genre, is classic No Zu. Dark and playful, layered with cryptic allusions and implausibly danceable, the EP shows NO ZU at their restless, exploratory best. 2016 second album Afterlife took No Zu to Europe as well as US shows where they collaborated with members of Liquid Liquid. 2017 remix EP BODY2BODY2BODY saw Afterlife tracks reworked by 80s idols A Certain Ratio and Jonny Sender of Konk. In 2020 they released a double A-side single covering Hunters & Collectors' Talking To A Stranger and Bryan Ferry's Sensation, and played their last live show in Feb 2020. Now No Zu return with a joyful, celebratory EP of their final recordings with beloved vocalist Daphne Camf.
