Australian psychedelic heavy rock trio Robot God premiere new single »Drifting Into Overdrive« from upcoming album »Curse Of The Driven«
Sydney, Australia based psychedelic heavy rockers Robot God are showing no signs of slowing down.
Following the release of their acclaimed 2026 album »Onto The Afterlife«, Robot God return with »Drifting Into Overdrive«, the latest single from their upcoming album »Curse Of The Driven«, landing on September 11th, 2026 across all major streaming platforms.
»Drifting Into Overdrive« is Robot God doing what they do best, locking into a deep, hypnotic groove and letting the riffs take the wheel. Fuzz, weight, atmosphere with a relentless forward momentum, delivering another glimpse into a band that continues to push its sound further with every release.
The single arrives ahead of the band’s second full-length album of 2026, »Curse Of The Driven«, due October 16th.
Available on vinyl through respected underground labels Kozmik Artifactz and Black Throne Productions, »Curse Of The Driven« sees Robot God continuing their evolution through crushing stoner grooves, psychedelic textures, heavy riffs and expansive jams.
Robot God have spent the past few years building a reputation well beyond their Sydney home base, earning international recognition within the psychedelic, stoner and heavy underground and sharing stages with major international acts. Now, with »Onto The Afterlife« behind them and »Curse Of The Driven« ready to land, the band are taking things up another level.
