Melbourne lads House Vs. Hurricane are gaining a serious amount of attention with news they will be releasing their sophomore album Crooked Teeth and will be touring nationally on the back of the album.
Adding a much-needed Australian flare to the post-hardcore genre that has been, until recently, dominated by US and European bands, House Vs. Hurricane have secured an intimidating fan base, not just Down Under, but all over.
Minds were literally blown after their first EP, Forfeiture, was released, which the band showcased all over the country with consistent touring. Crooked Teeth, the band’s latest release since 2010’s Perspectives, was recorded in New Jersey with production mastermind and absolute magician Machine (Four year Strong, The Amity Affliction, Every Time I Die) and will be the first time the band has recorded plus toured with their new frontman Dan Casey. The band seem totally thrilled to be with their new bandmate with clean vocalist / guitarist Ryan McLerie stating: “Dan is absolutely killing it, we are siked on each other’s ideas, and vocally you can expect the strongest HVH record yet.”
The Crooked Teeth tour will also include two bands from the UK: Metalcore lads While She Sleeps, who’s debut The North Stands for Nothing has fans itching to hear their up-and-coming album, which is currently in production; as well as Post-Hardcore band Heights. Also on the bill is our very own Northlane, who seem totally unstoppable.
The first clip has been unleashed from the album for single Blood Knuckles, and by the sounds of things, we have a tight, well-produced, well-written album to expect…finally!
Crooked Teeth is set for release June 29, 2012; check out the clip for Blood Knuckles below the tour dates.
