Eora/Sydney-based alternative-metal band Aurateque have just unveiled their debut EP The Dragonfly Pursuit, produced by Steve Balbi (Little River Band, Noiseworks) and mixed/mastered by Chris Blancato (Northlane, Reliqa).
The Dragonfly Pursuit is a six-track explosive amalgamation of alternative-metal and nu-metal, spearheaded by vocalist Lauren Coleman, who exudes a hauntingly melodic, yet vehemently forceful presence throughout the EP. The body of work is a tumultuous blend of heavy mayhem that showcases the band’s evolution thus far.
Aurateque talk about the creation of The Dragonfly Pursuit: “‘The Dragonfly Pursuit’ is a culmination of lessons learnt with time and pain. It touches on many topics like substance abuse, existentialism and fear of the unknown. Central themes include patterns you can’t undo and struggle to face, and becoming everything you hate.”
