Pond Share New ‘Giant Tortoise’ Track As A Free Download
The Perth band drop their sweaty raggedness for something more star-gazing in this new song.

Perth, Australia psych-seekers Pond have given away a new track, ‘Giant Tortoise’, taken from a forthcoming 2013 full-length.
The song follows on from last year’s ‘Beard, Wives, Denim’ record - rated 7/10 by Jack Parker on DIY - and it follows a customary course of rooting itself in heady, psychedelic freakouts.
‘Giant Tortoise’ is more illuminating and fully-produced than anything on the last album. With an almost intergalactic style of production, it’s less rough-around-the-edges than the songs appearing on ‘Beard’. If the next album’s called ‘Booze, Space, Stratosphere’ we wouldn’t be at all surprised.
The song’s available as a free download on pondband.com, in exchange for your email. Stream the track below.
