Sundogproject Kick Off Pre-Album Launch Tour This Month

If tracks like “Tauro” and “Bicycle” are anything to go by, Delhi-based experimental band Sundogproject are taking a much darker direction with their hypnotic, electro-rock sound on their second album Tora. After putting out Hex 1/Visions in October 2013, the four-piece act is now stepping out of their hometown to play four cities as part of the pre-release tour.

Having single-handedly pulled off live sets in the past with a mic, synthesizer and guitar, founder and vocalist of Sundogproject Rahul Das, reveals that this time, the entire band [comprising drummer Shardul Mehta, guitarist Rahul Sainani and bassist Abhinav Chaudhary] will be playing with him, and that listeners expect the tracks to sound a little different. Says Das, “When I play these songs live, I always like them to be a little over-the-top. It’s always nice to change them around.”

Apart from performing new tracks like the massive-sounding “Peoaxi” and the harder-hitting, industrial “Disk” from the upcoming album [slated for release later this year] Sundogproject will also be throwing in older material such as “Parhelion” and “Witching Hour” from Hex1/Visions, as well as a previously unreleased track “Static,” at their upcoming gigs.

September 23^rd, Blue Frog, Pune with Pangea and Drawing Short Straws
