In 2020 Dog Trumpet released Great South Road the title serving as a link to their childhood in New Zealand referring to the old main road leading from Aukland to Wellington passing through their southern Aukland suburb of Papakura and also as a metaphor for the parlous and perilous state of the world, for a human society that appears to be heading South towards a dystopian future.
