Hierophants are an Australian quartet who play jittery, nervous post-punk/new wave-inspired indie rock. Their simple, catchy songs feature buzzing organ and a thin layer of echo, along with lyrics expressing stress and frustration. Consisting of drummer Jake Robertson (also of <a href="spotify:artist:7i5Twj7Q1qiS27JnHhNTW5">Ausmuteants</a>), guitarist Zak Olsen, keyboard player Paris Richens, and bassist Daff Gravolin, the group formed in 2010 after Olsen moved to the Southern Australian city of Geelong. In 2012, Hierophants released a 7" EP as well as a couple of split cassettes on the Anti Fade Records label. The group's release schedule took a bit of a breather while <a href="spotify:artist:7i5Twj7Q1qiS27JnHhNTW5">Ausmuteants</a> released several well-received albums and singles, but Hierophants returned in 2014 with two 7" singles: "Nothing Neu!" on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Goodbye+Boozy+Records%22">Goodbye Boozy Records</a> and "Pneumatic Drill" on Moontown Records. <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Goner+Records%22">Goner Records</a> (<a href="spotify:artist:7i5Twj7Q1qiS27JnHhNTW5">Ausmuteants</a>' American home) signed Hierophants and released a 7" called "I Don't Mind" in early 2015. The group's debut full-length, Parallax Error, was released in October by <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Goner+Records%22">Goner Records</a> and Melbourne-based <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Aarght%21+Records%22">Aarght! Records</a>. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi
