Eddy Current Suppression Ring released their first album in seven years, titled In Light Of Recent Events. The album is described as raw, intense, and highly strung, matching their earlier sound. The label says the material grew out of private weekly jam sessions throughout 2025. Live performances were played under aliases including Jimmy and the Ringtones and Top Hats. The tracklist includes VU-inspired songs such as “Swimmin' Hole” and “Hard To Be Moved,” which were released quietly on YouTube within the last year, along with nine additional high-energy tracks. A tour is hoped for, since the band has not played the US since 2010.
"Surprise! Melbourne punk greats Eddy Current Suppression Ring are back, having just dropped their first album in seven years on an unsuspecting public. It's titled In Light Of Recent Events and finds them pretty much where we left them in 2029: raw, intense and highly strung."
"According to their label, the album grew out of "private weekly jam sessions throughout 2025," as well as live performances played under aliases that included Jimmy and the Ringtones and Top Hats. The album includes the VU-inspired "Swimmin' Hole" and "Hard To Be Moved," which were released quietly on YouTube in the last year, plus nine other rippers."
"We can only hope a tour is in store - ECSR haven't played the US since 2010."
