Expression from Abstract Expression by Great Earthquake
Great Earthquake return with ‘Expression’, the third single from their upcoming album Abstract Expression, out August 2 on Lost And Lonesome.
Across a dozen-odd albums, Great Earthquake AKA Noah Symons has proven himself to be a post-punk one-man-band force of nature.
Regarding the new single ‘Expression’, Noah explains: “‘Expression’ is an autobiographical song about working through pain and learning to stand up for myself. After a lifetime of passive behaviour and people-pleasing there was a point when I had to do something about it. It's an emotional slow burner built around keyboard beats and expansive vocal lines as this idea of a 'New Noah' is presented.”
Recorded and mixed by Noah at home in Monbulk, Victoria the new album explores deeply personal experiences but also allows space and time to reflect in between.
From a detailed first-hand account of falling asleep at the wheel to conveying a disenchanted view of Christianity, Abstract Expression draws the listener into these personal tales and then allows space to get lost in the longer, hypnotic and deeply rhythmic instrumental jams interspersed throughout the album.
