Melbourne post-punks Total Control are coming to America this summer. The five-piece band, formed in 2008 from members of Eddy Current Suppression Ring and UV Race, toured a few years back with Thee Oh Sees, but now they’ll be heading out for their first US live dates since their album Typical System came out last year.
The band kicks off the tour with a Brooklyn date, where they’ll be performing alongside Lust for Youth, Sannhet, and Flesh World, before setting off on a mystical visionquest across America. Their final scheduled date will be in Los Angeles, where they’ll perform at punk/noise fest Berserktown in mid-August.
