Gut Health drops new single ‘Separate States’ and announces European tour dates

Gut Health have released their new single ‘Separate States’.

Coming off a 14-date tour across the UK and Europe, the Naarm/Melbourne-based dance-punk sextet are following up on last year’s releases including ‘Juvenile Retention’, ‘Uh oh’, and ‘The Recipe’.

‘Separate States’ is described by the band as their most experimental work to date. “We really wanted to channel early electronic music from the 1950s/60s and b-grade sci-fi movies of the time like Forbidden Planet,” they explain. “One thing I really enjoy about the track are the ‘church bell’ sounds, an accidental discovery built from stacking layers of dissonant guitar harmonics at once.”

The recording process was handled by Julian Cue and mixed by Evan Mersky in Portland on a 24-track reel-to-reel tape, with a notable saxophone contribution by Naarm-based artist Yang Chen.
