New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Australia's Tropical Fuck Storm return today with "New Romeo Agent," the latest taster of their incoming new album, Deep States, out August 20th on Joyful Noise. "New Romeo Agent" finds the band's Erica Dunn taking the lead on vocals for a song that's at once spooky, sweetly sad and off-kilter and finds her recalling a world-weary Debbie Harry. It serves as a reminder of the melody within even the most feedback-heavy arrangements on Deep States.

Speaking of the track, Dunn says: "Our love & death tragedy-ballad kicks off in the aftermath of Octavia Butler's short story Amnesty where a translator for the human race infiltrates an alien community Cold War Romeo agent style. Sent to collect secrets and glean intelligence, against all odds, the undercover spy falls in love. As our human/alien inamorates connect in an intimate new language, they decide to make a run for it. We glimpse an oasis of hope in defiance of the violence and backstabbery of their masters. We imagine a tropical island of romance in an icy sea devoid of solar warmth. We look back on the spinning wheel of progress and feel that all the desperation, despair and heartache of the past could finally be worth it for this moment, a conquest of love! A clock striking for a new age! But, they get murdered. The end." Appropriately enough, "New Romeo Agent" comes accompanied by an intergalactic karaoke odyssey of a video, directed by Oscar O'Shea, that sees TFS playing as captives in an alien dive bar.

Deep States mines new cultural terrains and digs into the subjective state of contemporary panic. Over the last five years, you didn't have to be conspiratorial to see the conspiracies everywhere you turned; and Gareth Liddiard, Fiona Kitschin, Erica Dunn, and Lauren Hammel, know how to make friends with the strange. The band chronicles weird adventures in statecraft and surveillance, ponders the global infatuation with resurgent fascisms. Tropical Fuck Storm shine an incandescent light on a world in which corporate media, bad-faith leaders, and charismatics of all stripes lose the ability to recognise their own deceptiveness.
