Bad dreems

Adelaide. There's no time to wallow in the mire. If you do you're just gonna get sucked away. Bad//Dreems know this. That's why they got together the summer before last. Scratch the surface here and you find another world, far removed from the leafy inner suburbs. The empty jail on the edge of the city. A decade long bikie war. The Family. This is the weird murder capital. The weed capital. It is this world, constructed or not that Bad//Dreems attempt to capture.

Are you frustrated by the constant AGITATION? Are you sick of getting the whole ROTTEN BANANA? Are you tired of being TURNED OFF?

STRAIGHT ARROWS are too, and they've written their longest song yet about the subject. Clocking in at a yawn-some 1 minute 47, from their so-far untitled 2017 LP, this is TURN ME OFF. And we know it'll push all the right buttons to TURN YOU ON.

To celebrate, STRAIGHT ARROWS are HITTING THE ROAD across the USA with THEE OH SEES, along with a whole bunch of their own shows. See the band live, pick up the track on a special tour 7" out through AGITATED RECORDS, and be thoroughly TURNED OFF.

Home Life

Too Old

Bad//Dreems were born during an Adelaide heatwave in the summer of 2012. Ben Marwe, Alex Cameron, James Bartold & Miles Wilson began playing together in a whitegoods warehouse on the banks of the River Torrens, a drop punt away from the West End Brewery. 

Their first release, the Badlands EP led to attention from TripleJ & US college radio. The debut LP Dogs At Bay (2015) & follow up Gutful (2017), both produced by Mark Opitz, cemented their place as one of the most exciting Australian guitar bands of recent times. They’ve toured extensively both in AUS and abroad, appearing at Splendour in the Grass, Falls & Laneway festivals & supporting acts such as Midnight Oil, At The Drive In, The Avalanches, Wolf Alice, Scientists & Cold Chisel. 
2019 saw the addition of long time live member engineer Ali Wells to the band. 

Their 3rd album, ‘Doomsday Ballet’ is due for release October 18 2019, which was recorded in Adelaide with production from Burke Reid & Jack Ladder.
