Brooklyn band Netherlands has been cranking out its psych-prog-sludge-pop since 2012 – somewhere between the colossal weight of the Melvins, the sugary hooks of Torche, the gleeful drama of Rush, and the absurdism of Frank Zappa. Founder Timo Ellis' lyrics contain scathing critiques of capitalism, materialism, and environmental devastation.
Zombie Techno was recorded by Ellis, mixed by Adam Sachs (Swans, Joan As Policewoman), and mastered by Ron A. Shaffer (Tricky, Usher). With Zombie Techno out now, Netherlands is already at work on the next album – the as-yet-untitled sixth full-length is being recorded with Converge's Kurt Ballou at GodCity Studio (Torche, High On Fire) and mixed by Grammy-nominated producer Alex Berthelot (Gojira, Frank Ocean).
"Purveying a kaleidoscopic, sugary yet heavy sound that's been described as 'psych-prog-sludge-pop,' New York's Netherlands have won over big-name fans including Mastodon's Bill Kelliher and Gojira's Joe Duplantier, the latter of whom has called them 'one of my absolute favorite bands!' Led by vocalist-guitarist-songwriter Timo Ellis, the quartet are gearing up to drop their fifth full-length, 'Zombie Techno'...The LP includes the single 'We're All Gonna Die One Day,' aptly titled for our apocalyptic times, a churning, bottom-heavy cut that shimmers with sarcastically sunny hooks."
–Revolver
"The song states its intent with some laid-back synths, an ultra slow tempo, and some equally soft vocals. However, anybody familiar with Netherlands' work know that conventions settle only for a limited period, and a surprise shift into more turbulent industrial recesses adds a whole new bombastic persona to the song. Genius! As a whole, 'Zombie Techno' has the potential to be 'album of the year' material."
–Everything Is Noise
"Some of their greatest work to date."
