Australia’s Tropical Fuck Storm continue their hot streak of releases with Moonburn, a maxi-single cassette out August 26th on Joyful Noise Recordings. Today, they present one of its singles, a cover of The Stooges’ “Ann.” Bassist Fiona Kitschin steps up to the microphone on a cover that swaps Ron Asheton’s scorching guitar part for a deranged sound collage of guitar freakouts, siren noises, and electronics. It’s accompanied by a video directed by Sam Mapplebeck, which TFS’ Gareth Liddiard calls “a cheap shit DIY, high explosive puppeteering miniature concert shrinkage film clip.”

Alongside “Ann,” Side A of the cassette also offers the new song, “Moonburn,” a ballad in the classic TFS style written and sung by Liddiard. Side B includes an acoustic take on the fan-favorite song “Aspirin (Slight Return)” and a haunting cover of Talking Heads’ “Heaven”.

Tropical Fuck Storm will tour across North America and Europe this autumn in support of their 2021 album Deep States. A full list of dates can be found further below and tickets for all shows are on sale now.
