THE AMITY AFFLICTION continue to tease the arrival of their much-anticipated new studio record, ‘HOUSE OF CARDS’, with the reveal of a blistering new single – BLEED.
Released as the band continues their extensive tour of regional Australia, the latest from THE AMITY AFFLICTION lands with impact; a ferocious stride forward for the group into a brand new era of artistry.
Where previous single, HOUSE OF CARDS, was an emotionally weighted insight into the relationship songwriter JOEL BIRCH and his siblings shared with their mother, BLEED has manifested itself into an avenue for Birch to look at public perceptions and personas, versus the reality he exists in every day.
As he explains, “This song is a bit of a fuck you to people online who leave comments like they know me personally, or know anything about what’s happening in my life, and a bit of a reminder to myself that I am not beholden to that idea, and I am the person I know myself to be. “I bleed the way I bleed…” is my way of saying that I am the way I am, not the way I am perceived to be by people who don’t actually know me and have formed or projected an idea of me onto me by way of social media.”
Released alongside the single today, THE AMITY AFFLICTION share the music video for BLEED, directed by Daniel Daly.
The release of BLEED further positions the ‘HOUSE OF CARDS’ era as one of the most exciting and defining for THE AMITY AFFLICTION – a band who has been driven by the desire to navigate new creative territory, music that empowers both them as a unit as well as their community of fans who have been with them throughout all their previous chapters.
‘HOUSE OF CARDS’, the first full-length record to feature clean vocalist JONNY REEVES, is a moment of reinvention – and it is one the band is set to unleash in its full glory across a jam packed year of international touring to come.
Throughout March, THE AMITY AFFLICTION will be completing their 21 date regional tour with IN HEARTS WAKE and REDHOOK. Their return to North America in April coincides with the release of ‘HOUSE OF CARDS’ – due for release via PURE NOISE RECORDS on April 24.
