Serial Killer Smile [Debut EP Launch]

After eighteen months filled with tour supports for 3 national touring bands, countless rocking local shows and a sold out launch for debut single The Irrepressible, Perth’s Serial Killer Smile are gearing up to launch their debut EP, The Elephant in the Room on the 17th of February 2012 at The Rosemount Hotel. 

Featuring the latest single The Baker the EP will be available nationally through Firestarter Distribution from the 10th of February 2012. Once you peek through the keyhole in the cleverly designed packaging and slip the disc into your aural weapon of choice you’re greeted by a violently boiling melting pot of heavy off kilter drum rhythms, angular yet groovy guitar riffs and some sweet vocal melody to tie it together.

The Elephant in the Room EP is only 5 tracks but it’s still plenty enough to lose yourself in. When the home demos of this EP made it onto Triple J radio’s Unearthed website, heavy music show presenter Andrew Haug was quick to review The Irrepressible claiming “Great track! I love diggin in here to find such cool stuff as this, very impressive and some seriously cool melodies and hooks. A Band to keep an eye on 4/5”.

To make sure that the debut EP could be all that it could be Serial Killer Smile flew in one of Singapore’s best producers, Roland Lim, to assist in the tracking and backing vocal arrangements of the EP. Mixing duties were given to Anthony Cormican at Crank Studios in Northbridge as the band had been seriously impressed with his previous work with diverse acts such as Birds Of Tokyo, Bob Evans and Nathan Gaunt. Anthony also lent his skills as a string composer to the opening track The Baker. 

Mastering was delivered by powerhouse mastering engineer Leon Zervos at Studios 301 who has provided knockout masters for Aerosmith, Dream Theater & Midnight Oil to name a few. Join them tonight along with special guests Further Earth, Copius and This Other Eden.
