[ Winegum Records / CD ]
Release Date: Friday 28 March 2025
The debut full-length album from Ōtautahi's latest rising rock outfit Velveteen is jam packed with fuzzy Corgan-esque guitars, heavy drums and emotional vocal melodies and lyrics.
Channeling the energy of 90s alt-rock, infused with a dark, post-punk edge, Heavy Machinery delves into a rollercoaster of emotions, with frontman Jai's heartfelt lyrics and burning vocals exploring his feelings during a time of heartbreak and the deterioration of some close relationships.
Fans of The Smashing Pumpkins, Jimmy Eat World, Shihad and The Garden will find plenty to love here.
