Two years on since their last EP, Melbourne surf-punks Sophisticated Dingo are back with How’s The Carry On!?, a familiar blast of their high-octane garage sound that’s energised by an omnipresent musical expansion.

Ahead of its official release tomorrow, we’ve been treated to a sneak preview of Le Fleur’s new single ‘Strange Moonlight’ – a dazzling future-funk hit that doubles as an examination of systemic racism in Australia, its enthusiastic grooves and upbeat tempo making the track’s powerful message all the more rousing.
