Bio
“DROVES combine a dystopic sound that feels both old and new at the same time” - Pilerats
Made up of Phillip Spiteri, Taylor McAuliffe, Luise Martin, Jonathan McKenzie and Tiernan Browne. DROVES offer a refreshed look at New Wave Punk, reminiscent of early New Order, Eurythmics and The Cure.
With reverb soaked snares, pulsing drums, glistening analogue synths, punk guitar melodies and Spiteri’s baritone vocals matching McAuliffe’s powerful tenor voice. DROVES create music that draws listeners in with anthemic pop hooks that speak to the future of humanity and embrace them with dark imagery of a post-apocalyptic cult.
Since their debut show at Yours and Owls Festival In 2018 and the widely celebrated release of their single ‘Time’, DROVES have toured their unique brand of dance-punk across Australia’s east coast and were quoted as a ‘highlight of 2019’s Farmer & The Owl festival.’

Listened to this new one Retribution and came here to reference Foals but realized I went that way with my last review. At least I'm consistent I guess. I really appreciate the dual vocals in this song. Gotta catch this live one time.
