House Vs. Hurricane

Like any young band, House VS Hurricane started as an idea amongst friends, a way to create something that the members themselves wanted to hear.



Fast forward two years and House VS Hurricane have grown from a promising local talent to one of the most rapidly rising acts in Australian heavy music today. After accompanying Bullet For My Valentine (UK) on their sold out Australian trek in January 2009, House VS Hurricane went on to perform at the Melbourne leg of the mammoth Soundwave Festival, as well as supporting Misery Signals, The Devil Wears Prada and our very own Parkway Drive across their various tours.



2009 also saw the band headline two of their own sold out national tours before departing for the US to record with famed producer Brian McTernan, who has worked with everyone from Thrice and Hot Water Music to Circa Survive and Darkest Hour.



The end result is House VS Hurricane’s stunning debut full-length, Perspectives.



Both newcomers and fans of the group’s debut EP Forfeiture – which has sold just shy of 4,000 copies with limited distribution – will be impressed by the juxtaposition of unbridled heaviness and ambience that is displayed across Perspectives’ twelve-tracks, a sound that is often attempted but rarely executed with this much success.



Since the release of Perspectives (which debuted at #2 on the AIR charts and #12 for Australian releases on the ARIA charts), House VS Hurricane toured nationally on their largely sold-out album tour, as well as performing alongside Gyroscope, The Butterfly Effect, Frenzal Rhomb and Strung Out as one of the main acts at the 2010 Come Together Festival.



This past August saw House VS Hurricane hit the road for a largely suburban/regional run with Heroes For Hire, which followed by a national tour with Enter Shikari (UK) in September. The band is currently on tour in the UK/Europe with Scottish act Flood Of Red and will be returning home this December for the No Sleep Til Festival (full line up at www.nosleeptil.com.au)
