A Quick Chat with Internet Romance
Tell us about your debut release ‘My Dog’s a Liar’?
‘My Dog’s A Liar’ is a playful anthem inspired by Tilly’s (the singer) dog Bentley, who’s mastered the art of acting like he’s never been fed. The concept came from a simple question: What if he were human for a day? Picture the world’s biggest tightass, a compulsive liar, and the type of person who’d hustle a cartel with fake narcotics, all wrapped up in a furry little package.
Why did you choose ‘My Dog’s A Liar’ to be the public’s first taste of Internet Romance?
‘My Dog’s A Liar’ was the song that people kept talking about after our shows, it was the one that stuck in their heads the most, perhaps it’s the catchy chorus. We could tell it had that instant, addictive quality, so it just felt right to make it the first track to share with the world.
For new listeners, what other artists would you compare your sound to?
Viagra Boys, Ecca Vandal and Idles are some of our biggest inspirations for the band. We’re also often compared to Amyl and the Sniffers, Garbage and Grinspoon at live shows.
What can fans expect to see from your live shows?
Loud music, zero egos and non-stop dancing! If you're all about raw, high-energy tunes, our shows are the place to be. We just have so much fun on the stage, at the heart of it all we’re just musos that love to play together and share our music with the world.
What are your plans for 2026?
Our main focus this year is gigging around Melbourne, with plans to do a mix of regional and Melbourne gigs, plus a festival is in the works. We’ll be recording and releasing more music too, it’s going to be a big one, stay tuned!
