about

Non-stop rocker Alien Nosejob, aka Jake Robertson, returns to earth with his second full-length record of 2020, finally bringing the high-octane hardcore punk side of the band to an LP.

Hot on the heels of January’s “Suddenly Everything Is Twice as Loud” LP, Nosejob carries on their winning streak and wordy album titles with Once Again the Present Becomes the Past, which instead follows in the footsteps of November’s “HC45″ 7”; merging early 80’s hardcore and late 70’s NWOBHM.

“Once Again the Present Becomes the Past” started life as a concept record about Australia’s first and largest air raid, the 1942 Bombing of Darwin. However, while grappling with this heavy subject matter, something from Norm Macdonald’s book of all places stuck with Jake: “The Present Became Past Again”. History is forever repeating itself. It continues to happen. It will happen again.

As the record took shape, it was fleshed out with the help of his new reel-to-reel recorder, turning crust and hardcore influences into the dark and cold array of songs documented within.

Find out why Alien Nosejob is one of the rare signifiers of both quantity AND quality.
