POND has revealed that their latest album Terrestrials, out on Jun 19 on their own newly coined imprint Mangovision via Secretly Distribution, alongside a stream of headline dates in the US this July-September. Marking the announcement is their latest single and video “Two Hands.”
Speaking about the new single “Two Hands,” Nicholas Albrook shares “This song is about when mining company Rio Tinto blew up Juukun Gorge in the Hammersley Range in Western Australia. They destroyed sacred rock shelters that were of the highest archaeological, cultural and spiritual significance. The rock shelters contained a cultural sequence spanning 46, 000 years that had been taken care of by the local Indigenous communities. I was wondering how the commentators around this country would’ve reacted if the shoe was on the other foot and someone had demolished the Vatican or Notre Dame or St. Paul’s because it was in the way of their corporate expansion. Anyway, its a little word of encouragement that you’ve got every right to be very fucking angry about this injustice.”
