Psychedelic Porn Crumpets Tease New Album With Single ‘Bubblegum Infinity’

Psychedelic Porn Crumpets are tilling the land ahead of their fifth album, Night Gnomes. The single ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ will appear on the Perth band’s new album, which is due out Friday, 22nd April.

‘Bubblegum Infinity’ is a contrast to the previous Night Gnomes teaser, ‘Lava Lamp Pisco’. While ‘Lava Lamp Pisco’ was a stoner rock head basher, ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ is one of PPC’s most pop-oriented songs to date. Singer and songwriter Jack McEwan described ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ as the “cute little playful member of the Night Gnomes club.”

“I like its pop sensibility and melancholy notions,” he said. “It’s cheerful and good natured. It’s not trying to be something profound, more a statement of life at this time, and by calling it ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ we’re showcasing that lighthearted vulnerability. So go easy on us, metal fans.”

It’s 12 months since Psychedelic Porn Crumpets released their fourth album, SHYGA! The Sunlight MoundThe album was sparked by McEwan’s desire to place Beatles-esque melodies against a backdrop of super-charged tempos, inspired by Nirvana and early Kings of Leon.

PPC are hitting the road in support of Ocean Alley this month. See all upcoming tour dates below.
