Since making their debut in 2024, Adelaide indie-punk outfit DROPSINK has wasted no time in establishing themselves as a force to watch.

Building solidly on sonic foundations that take inspiration from Australian genre greats including DZ Deathrays and Violent Soho, DROPSINK have pushed themselves into confident new territory as musicians – perfectly represented on their latest track, ‘impressions (she said)’.
 
The new single from the band, following on from previous releases ‘Animal’ and ‘Care At All’, shows the fun chemistry that exists within the group, while also demonstrating a passionate approach to songwriting – particularly when it comes to navigating some, sometimes, hard to understand topics. ‘impressions (she said)’ is a track DROPSINK describes as “focusing on recovery from addiction and social anxiety, and the implications that come with these things.”
 
Through the song, the band offers the listener an opportunity to view an emotionally locked in element of the band and their art;
 
“‘impressions (she said)’ was written as we welcomed Simon [Banaag, bass] into the band. Welcoming a new member allowed us to expand our sound, making production more dynamic, as well as adding backing vocals to our music. ‘impressions’ is the first of a fresh direction of song writing which DROPSINK have taken, drawing from a new set of influences and focusing on meaningful lyric writing and a heavier aesthetic.” DROPSINK

DROPSINK have carved out a unique space for themselves within a burgeoning new wave of South Australian indie and punk bands. Mixing an engaging attitude with confident and immersive sounds, the group has become a favourite on their local circuit as headliners and supporting the likes of Surf Trash (QLD), Mac The Knife (NSW) and Semantics (QLD).

Since their formation, DROPSINK have garnered favourable attention via rotation on triple j Unearthed, as well as a nomination at the South Australian Music Awards in 2025. To celebrate the release of ‘impressions (she said)’, the band will perform a special launch show at The Austral in December.
