Rolo Tomassi have announced 'Closer (The Edits)' EP, out 5th August via MNRK. The EP contains new edits of the bands recent single 'Closer' from Daniel Avery, ATTLAS and Ki Oni & Luke Elliott.

Rolo Tomassi hare never a band to stand still, and can now announced 'Closer (The Edits)' EP, set for release on 5th August. The EP contains newly edited versions of the bands single 'Closer', which is taken from from their critically acclaimed album 'Where Myth Becomes Memory' that was released back in February earlier this year. The band teamed up with Daniel Avery and ATTLAS and Ki Oni & Luke Elliot for the new edits, and release the Daniel Avery edit today, June 9th, on all DSP's. On working this edit and remix project, the band said: "It was great to get the opportunity to have an artist like Daniel Avery produce this edit of the track. We're big fans of his own work so jumped at the chance to have him work on it. Similarly with ATTLAS, who has taken take 'Closer' and opened it up to a whole new audience with his incredible remix. It's just so exciting to hear these other artists take elements from our signwriting and make something entirely new." A little about first collaborator, Daniel Avery: Over the last decade Daniel Avery has cemented a worldwide reputation as one of the most original artists in contemporary electronic music. The release of the seminal debut Drone Logic in 2013 — an album defined by mentor Andrew Weatherall as “gimmick-free machine funk of the highest order” — is a record that still makes its presence felt today. A collaboration with synth master and Nine Inch Nails member Alessandro Cortini spawned the full length Illusion Of Time. The latest albums Together in Static and Love + Light formed sister releases during lockdown and were further proof still of Avery’s range, delicacy and skill as a producer. A self-confessed late-starter to the world of dance floors, instead lured by the guitars of The Stooges and My Bloody Valentine during his teens, over time Avery became fascinated by the expansive possibilities of sound design and refined a beautifully brutal style distinctly his own.

Fresh from making their critically acclaimed live debuts at Australian festivals UNIFY Gathering and Groovin' The Moo and polishing off their biggest ever national headlining tour, Eora / Sydney alt-rock force RedHook have returned with their most gut-wrenching single to date, ‘Jabberwocky’, produced by Stevie Knight (Stand Atlantic, Yours Truly) and mixed by James Paul Wisner (Underoath, Paramore). Listen to Jabberwocky HERE / Click to stream 'Jabberwocky' / Click to pre-save ‘Jabberwocky’ is an intensely personal song that addresses vocalist Emmy Mack’s experience of being sexually assaulted while on RedHook’s first ever overseas tour. Using the metaphor of the Jabberwocky (a fictional monster from the Alice In Wonderland mythos which in the Irwin Allen film adaptation Alice is ultimately able to vanquish by convincing herself it doesn’t exist) the song centres on Emmy’s coping process of denying her own trauma and the monster who inflicted it in order to effectively “go on with the show”. Menacing guitars and frenetic synths charge beneath Mack’s powerful vocals, building into a psychotic dubstep-inspired breakdown before the vulnerable chorus lyrics take centre stage. Emmy explains the inspiration behind the track: “As difficult as this song was to write, I felt like it was something I had to do. One of the main ways I cope when horrible things happen in life is by listening to music. But when this happened to me, for the very first time, I couldn’t find a song that resonated with what I was going through. Isn’t it strange that we’ve heard so many stories about high-profile male predators in the heavy music space over the past few years, and yet there are so few songs in the genre that deal with sexual assault itself from a female perspective? I really wanted to help change that.” RedHook will support the release of ‘Jabberwocky’ with their second ever tour of Europe in June, including their debut appearance at one of the world’s most iconic rock festivals Rock AM Ring / Rock Im Park alongside the likes of Green Day, Muse, Weezer, Turnstile, Gang Of Youths & Spiritbox, as well as multiple dates supporting The Faim throughout the UK, followed by a 28-date, three-month-long regional tour of Australia as main support for In Hearts Wake, and an appearance at Sydney All Ages festival Shoreshocked alongside Beddy Rays and The Rions. This continues on from a freshly completed national ‘Bring Ya Mates’ tour with The Dead Love and appearances at UNIFY Gathering, Groovin’ The Moo and Halloween Hysteria. The band have previously sold-out national tours and performed at festivals Download (UK), Download (AUS), Good Things, BIGSOUND and Stonefest. 2021 saw RedHook release their long-awaited debut EP ‘Bad Decisions’ which has ticked over 7 million Spotify streams and earned praise from Kerrang! (UK), Rock Sound (UK), Rolling Stone (AUS), Hysteria Magazine and has been nominated for AIR's Independent Music Awards 2022, with multiple video clips being added to rotation on ABC’s Rage. Lead single ‘Bad Decisions’ has also clocked 5 million Spotify streams and has just been announced as a finalist in the International Songwriting Competition and featured on Spotify’s ‘The Best Of The Rock List 2021’ alongside huge songs by Machine Gun Kelly, YUNGBLUD & more. Previous singles have been added to rotation on triple j, along with further radio support from SiriusXM (USA), Kerrang! Radio (UK), triple j Unearthed, The Faction, 4ZZZ and Aussie Music Weekly. ‘Jabberwocky’ is available worldwide now Hawthorne Heights have premiered new video 'Bad Frequencies' on Rock Sound. The track is taken from album Bad Frequencies which was released earlier this year, the band's first full-length album since 2013 and first release on Pure Noise Records. You can watch to 'Bad Frequencies' here Speaking on the song and video for Bad Frequencies singer JT Woodruff says:- ' One of my favourite places on earth is the California desert. It's a dream and a nightmare at the same time, which is why I love it. I wrote the lyrics to the song “Bad Frequencies” while waiting on Interstate 5 in traffic for 4 hours. My dream then turned into a nightmare. You just have to remember that the nightmare eventually goes away, and you always get back to where you need to be. Visually, much of the video’s vibe is an homage to some of our favourite music videos we grew up to in the 90’s. There is a certain amount of mystique to videos from that era that we absolutely love. Other visual inspirations include Twin Peaks and Black Mirror.' The album was produced by Hawthorne Heights along with Nick Ingram (Hotel Books, Capital House Studio), and mixed by Cameron Webb (Grammy Winner, NOFX, Social Distortion). The band previously worked with Ingram on the Hurt EP as well as Webb for “Push Me Away” which was released last summer ahead of their full run on the Vans Warped Tour.

We've followed Pure Noise for years, and have always been impressed with how they release records, and the bands they choose to sign. We really believe that Bad Frequencies is one of the best things that we've created as Hawthorne Heights, so we wanted to give it every possible chance at success. After a few conversations with Jake, we knew everything would come together quickly, and that it would be a fun project for both the band and label.” http://hawthorneheights.com/ https://www.facebook.com/HawthorneHeights https://twitter.com/HawthorneHgts https://www.instagram.com/hawthornehgts/ Lower Than Atlantis have released a brand new live video for 'I Would.'

This is the fourth track showcased from the album following the melodic, angst-driven anthem ‘Do You Love Me’, the title-track ‘I Am Human’ and the dark party-centric lead single ‘Empire’. ‘Broken Heart’ comes before their return to the UK at the end of next week, where they begin a run of headline shows in support of the album release. They will play shows in Manchester, Bristol, London, Nottingham and Glasgow with support from New Jersey post-hardcore band Palisades, before heading across the US with Eleven Seven label-mates Papa Roach and Nothing More. Throughout their career Escape The Fate have delivered a sound that is sonically diverse, piecing together metalcore, pop hooks and synth-infused ballads injected with 80’s sleaze, but with their sixth instalment, I Am Human, Escape the Fate are at their most raw, real, and relatable yet. It has been produced by GRAMMY Award-nominated super producer Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, Adam Lambert), and sees an evolution of Escape The Fate’s sound that brings the band back to the excitement of their roots.
