Bio:

The Homesicks is a five-piece Post-Punk group, They sound like a mixture of New-York No-Wave, 'Madchester' second Summer-Of-Love and early eighties New-Romantics.

The members of the band hold a double-bind musical viewpoint at the contemporary Neo-Post-Punk discourse as well as a non-nostalgic gaze at eighties-pop-music.

As 'Humanities' and 'Art' scholars, their music follows a Neo-Marxist political agenda and Continental Thought, which are manifested in their musical style and lyrics as well as in their D.I.Y Modes of Production.

'The Homesicks' recently released its highly-acclaimed debut album: "Modes of Production".
In the last three years the band has been active in the local Tel Aviv alternative music scene and they are ready to hit the road.
