Sugar Army

Trying to describe Sugar Army is both joyfully easy and nightmarishly hard. On the one hand you can talk in hyperbole and superlatives, and cover the essential description – that the band is quite unarguably beyond compare – but to try and describe their sound in detail is infinitely more difficult. As you listen to The Parallels Amongst Ourselves, you’ll come to understand just why this is the case, and that it is a very cool problem to have. Right from the spine-tingling opening of Parallels, it’s pretty obvious that this journey is one into unfamiliar territory…

In Hearts Wake

In Hearts Wake emerged from Byron Bay, New South Wales in early 2006 as a 5-piece metal fellowship (all born in 1990). Over their teenage years IHW have played with the likes of Parkway Drive, Miss May I (USA), Emmure (USA), Blessed By A Broken Heart (CAN), For Today (USA), Oh Sleeper (USA), The Wonder Years (USA), The Amity Affliction, Confession and Deez Nuts to name a few.

In 2010 In Hearts Wake entered the studio with Dan Brown (Confession, 50 Lions), to record their latest CD release, a 6-track ‘Split’ effort with Sydney’s progressive metal outfit ‘The Bride.’ With 3 releases under their belt, and a debut full length in the midst, IHW opted to release a cover of Chris Brown’s club hit ‘Yeah 3X’. IHW’s aptly named ‘YEAH 4X’ features clean vocals from their newly acquired bass player ‘Kyle Erich’ and guest vocals from fellow BBHC front man ‘Oscar Mcall’ (50 Lions).
