about

Exactly one year since their debut album, Great Outdoors return with their sophomore release ‘Fake News’.

'Fake News' see's a new line up for Great Outdoors. Max Impact and Dylan Young take the place of a revolving cast of characters to join founding member Zach Schneider.

'Fake News' is decidedly stripped back and direct. It stands eye to eye with you and delivers something honest.

Whilst feeling like a lost relic from the post punk or new wave era, 'Fake News' still finds a way to refresh guitar music in 2017. It takes its influence from bands like Wire and Television but is mostly influenced by the city it comes from; Melbourne, Australia.

From a View
by Floodlights

supported by 5 fans who also own “Fake News”

Channeling the spirit of the Aussie rock greats that proceeded them like Hunters & Collectors, Paul Kelly and Midnight Oil through their uniquely Australian lyrics that draw your mind to red dust roads and gum tree bushland. Unpretentious jangly guitars and a nice blend of female and male vocals tie it together. Ed Denton

Eulogies
by Alex Chilltown

Drawing on everything from soft-focus C86 like The Field Mice to distortion-heavy shoegaze, “Eulogies” is pop perfection. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 13, 2020
