FALL NORTH AMERICA TOUR WITH EMAROSA & DEVOUR THE DAY KICKS OFF NOVEMBER 10
OCTOBER 12, 2018 – CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA – Today, Hands Like Houses, have officially released their highly anticipated fourth studio album, –Anon., out now via Hopeless Records. The album was produced by Colin Brittain who is known for his work with acts like Papa Roach, 5 Seconds of Summer and One OK Rock. Fans can purchase -Anon. here.
Speaking to the new release, the band said, “After anxiously sitting on our most significant album to date, -Anon.- is finally out in the world and we’re already blown away by the love you guys have already show it. We can’t wait to see where these open doors take us and we sincerely hope you’ll join us on the ride!”
Previously, the band shared the first single and official music video for “Overthinking“, as well as “Monster“, and “Tilt“. “Monster” recently hit #1 on SiriusXM’s Octane channel and continues to steadily grow at radio, reaching the Top 50 on the Active Rock charts and climbing, in addition to hitting over 1 million streams on Spotify. The single has also been chosen as the official theme song for WWE’s pay-per-view the “Super Show-Down”, and has been heard on Monday Night Football as well.
With –Anon., Hands Like Houses found themselves with the opportunity to immerse themselves completely in the new songs, after spending much of the last six years on and off tour. The rare free time off the road allowed them to follow their instincts and craft each new song with its own energy and identity. The final collection presents and captures fatalism and optimism, call-outs and self-reflection, realism and fantasy, politics and personal journey. Each its own anonymous piece to relate to, built around a shared human experience or perspective.
