"This Is Our Vice" is Australian indie act Cub Sport's upcoming debut LP, due out March 4th. After 3 good EP releases (2012 "Told You So", 2013 "Paradise" and 2015 "Only Friend"), they are poised to break out. The following is from their pre-order announcement.
'This Is Our Vice' is the debut album from dreamy Brisbane indie-pop band Cub Sport!
Like any game-changing record, 'This Is Our Vice' is sprawling and complicated — opener "Sun" is a levitating meditation that sounds like an avant-garde Beach Boys outtake ("We're gonna go where it is warm, leaving with everything you took," they sing).
"I Can't Save You," is a lo-fi lament with sharp edges that settles into an upbeat declaration about the blurry line between desire and neediness. And first single "Only Friend," is a swelling, spacious emotional purging of isolation and pressure he felt while making the album.
"All of the vocals you hear are the original ones, from my bedroom as I was writing it," he says. "It truly captured that moment."
