With their nod to ’90s guitar sludge, it was only a matter of time before Deaf Wish got on board the revival gravy train.
The Melbourne quartet have been announced as supports for indie icons Dinosaur Jr as they drag their Marshall stacks around Australia for the third time in five years. The band will support Dinosaur Jr on two consecutive nights at The Corner Hotel in Melbourne (March 4 and 5), before jetting up to Sydney for the band’s performance at The Metro Theatre on March 11.
While in Sydney, Deaf Wish will belatedly launch their second LP, Reality & Visions, at the Supper Club on March 12 with supports by the Straight Arrows and the Dead Farmers. They will then head up to Brisbane for a launch at Rosies with Chinese Burns, Swamplords and Feathers on March 26.
Released through EXO/Idget Child in late December, Reality & Visions was recorded on an eight-track in a warehouse in suburban Melbourne. Review here.
UPDATE: Deaf Wish will reportedly play their first album in its entirety at Melbourne's Cherry Bar tonight with former member Sarah Hardiman, who is temporarily back in the country.

This is truly a match made in tinnitus heaven.
I reckon DW are way more tinnitus inducing, in a good way.
As a tinnitus sufferer myself, modi, I may be able to resolve this question by a simple comparison test.
What?!
Am I Auslanning invisible?
