Psychedelic Porn Crumpets tease new album era with electric new single ‘Bubblegum Infinity’, from bands fifth album ‘Night Gnomes’ out April 22nd

Crashing through with another addictive, thrilling release to tease the divinely warped and curious sonic mind of songwriter Jack McEwan, Perth’s Psychedelic Porn Crumpets present new single
‘Bubblegum Infinity’.

Taken from their forthcoming new album (their fifth), Night Gnomes, the single is both a fitting example of what to expect from the broader album as it is a timely reminder of the ease of which Psychedelic Porn Crumpets can weave many distinctive creative sounds in making something definitively their own.

Just as we saw with the band’s 2021 single ‘Lava Lamp Pisco’, ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ comes layered with rich guitars and a decidedly more rock feel. However, ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ stands apart with its careening melodies and hypnotic vocals; almost as if King Gizzard & The Lizard met up with Thee Oh Sees and roped in DMA’S for a session. You’d think the fusion of these vibes wouldn’t necessarily work – Psychedelic Porn Crumpets prove that it can.

“Our cute little playful member of the Night Gnomes club. I think there’s mixed opinions of this song in the group but I’m sticking by it. I like its pop sensibility and melancholy notions. 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.

A lot of the album is about trying to work out what the F#@! is going on, in general life and obviously the period of time we’ve all found ourselves dormant in for the past two years. I started reading a few quotes from philosophers because, hey! They might know what’s going on, but mostly it was a bunch of cleverly worded gibberish that was drenched in self turmoil that thankfully, serendipitously, unbeknownst to me was the thing I found comfort in. That nobody has a clue what life is and we’re all winging it as we go! Cheers, William of Ockham.”
JACK McEWAN, PSYCHEDELIC PORN CRUMPETS

Particularly, when we put their new single in amongst the broader tapestry of Night Gnomes, ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ represents the balance between the previous eras of Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, and their vision for what’s coming next.

“The process for this album was a continuation from Shyga! I stepped up a few recording techniques and tried to hone in on the production side of things a little more, gave my mental train a fresh lick of paint and tried to make the album step up in quality from the previous four releases while still holding onto that ‘crumpet’ approach to songwriting.

In my mind it feels like a summary of everything we’ve previously released, a nice package for new fans to enjoy but also a nod to the ‘High Visceral’ days for the older fans.”
JACK McEWAN, PSYCHEDELIC PORN CRUMPETS

Following the Psychedelic Porn Crumpets tradition of matching chaotic visuals to their musical counterparts, the band linked up with filmographer Tay Kaka for a fun day out to bring ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ to life.

“The video was created by our good friend Tay Kaka, the idea is exactly as it looks really, having fun at a pop-up theme park. We strapped some go-pros to our noggins and acted like jovial children for the day, which was lucky we didn’t need much practice. One day we’ll be adults but for now we’re scraping the barrel for any glimmers of wondrous adventure we can find.”

The release of ‘Bubblegum Infinity’ this month and Night Gnomes in April comes as Psychedelic Porn Crumpets prepare for their long awaited return to stages around Australia and overseas. 2022 will see the band embark on their Australian run supporting Ocean Alley, before  heading back to Europe and the U.K. for their long awaited tour of the regions in August and September.

By the time Night Gnomes is released, Psychedelic Porn Crumpets will have two new studio albums primed and ready to share with audiences, having delivered the wild SHYGA! The Sunlight Mound last year to rave reviews.

The critically acclaimed album came in at #4 on the ARIA Album Chart, #2 on the ARIA Vinyl Chart, claimed the #1 spot on the AIR Album Chart, not to mention earning extensive playlist and radio support on Spotify, Apple Music, triple j, BBC Radio 1, Radio X and more during its initial album cycle. Subsequently, the release of ‘Lava Lamp Pisco’ brough Psychedelic Porn Crumpets more success in the second half of 2021; the single racking up over 400k streams on Spotify alone, as well multiple playlists and radars of reviewers globally.

Adding to an already impressive body of work, the way Psychedelic Porn Crumpets continue to build and elevate their musicianship is reflected not just in the recorded output, but in the response from fans and industry in Australia and abroad.
