Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever is scheduled to bring their scourge (meant in the best way possible) of music Stateside this week in support of their Coachella appearances this week. The Aussies’ jangly brand of rock channels a modern Midnight Oil and further solidifies what fans have been pining for with a couple of promising EP’s: a thunderous debut LP with “Hope Downs” scheduled for release via Sub Pop June 15. Check out the quintet’s disco ball heavy video for “Talking Straight” that makes “Hope Downs” one of the more eagerly anticipated albums of 2018.
