When you’ve got ten people in your band and your country’s facing major ecological damage, it can be tricky to focus on writing original music together. Enter Melbourne “heat beat” collective NO ZU, whose last record of originals came with 2016’s Afterlife followed by the 2017 remix EP BODY2BODY2BODY.
Last Friday however, the ten-piece released a double A-side of covers from some of their all-time favorites. Disco comes back to life on their rendition of Bryan Ferry’s “Sensation”, but NO ZU’s tribute to Oz-rock superstars Hunters & Collectors pulses with ’80s energy throughout their sleek, modern take on “Talking To A Stranger”!
