TEAM OF JUST ONE

Listen to/download Anecdata’s Team of Just One – released 18 March, 2022. A dozen tunes of fuzzy guitar power-pop.

Stream it on Spotify, Apple Music , YouTube Music, Tidal and everywhere else. Or download it from Bandcamp and get two bonus tracks – ‘Xertz’ and ‘Note to Self’.

Tackling the state of the world in 2022, the album – written and recorded entirely in a west Auckland home studio – is a mash-up of ’90s guitars, ’80s synths and ’60s melodies.

First single ‘Ammunition’ melds Manic Street Preachers and Devo riffs and takes aim at the war in Ukraine, while follow-up ‘Rent-Free’ tackles the anxieties of living through that and a pandemic at the same time via power-pop.

Elsewhere on the record, ‘Voices for Freedumb’ and ‘You Deserve It, Nazi’ look at disinformation in the Covid-19 age, while ‘Team of Just One‘ examines the balance of rights and responsibilities during a collective crisis in a society that prioritises individual rights.

But it’s not all serious, boring shit. ‘The Beatles’ is a tune about how everyone sucks because they’re not The Beatles.
