The Bride and In Hearts Wake have combined their powers for one mighty metal EP, appropriately called Split.
Like so many of the best ideas in music, the EP came about after a drunken chat while the bands were touring together.
“We have seen split EPs work well in the past for some of Australia’s best artists so we thought, ‘Why not?’ Plus it was a great way to come out with our new vocalist and sound gearing up for our album,” explained The Bride’s guitarist Matt Gravolin.
“We had been on tour with In Hearts Wake for about a month and the more it was talked about, the more everyone got excited about the idea.”
It’s a great concept which should help expose the bands’ enthusiasts to one another’s audience. New fans are sure to follow. The six-track Split EP is out now through New Justice Records.
