HELLIONS " Indian Summer Tour"

with Special Guests

Void Of Visions + Local Supports

Forming in early 2013, Sydney's own Hellions wasted little time in establishing themselves as a national presence. Releasing their first single 'Infamita,' in June of that year, the group quickly racked up supports and tours with Deez Nuts, Attila and Every Time I Die before releasing their UNFD debut, Die Young, in September. The trio's blend of aggressive, hardcore-influenced guitar work, punk rock melodicism, frenzied percussion and the unique delivery of front man Dre Faivre all combining to form a sound and style that Hellions can proudly call their own.

Hellions made an appearance on the Sydney leg of the Vans Warped Tour, as well as taking out BLUNT Magazines' 'Best Newcomer Award' in the 2013 End Of Year Reader's Poll. Tours alongside In Hearts Wake and Hand Of Mercy followed before personal circumstances forced the band into an extended period of downtime for the bulk of 2014.

Opting to maximise the time they'd been afforded, Hellions once again travelled to Thailand, to record Die Young's follow-up with long-time producer, collaborator and most importantly, their trusted friend, Shane "Buddha" Edwards, at Karma Sound Studios.

The result of those sessions is Indian Summer, Hellions' challenging, adventurous but ultimately rewarding second album. Dissatisfied with much of today's heavy music, Dre, Anthony (Caruso, drums) and Matthew (Gravolin, guitar) opted to draw on the sounds that inspired them in the first place, at times channeling the groove and power of Rage Against The Machine, alongside the grandiose theatrical nature of My Chemical Romance. Remarkably, Indian Summer maintains its composure in what can only be described as controlled chaos.

"Indian Summer represents everything we stand for as individuals. There are parts on the record that are incredibly personal and parts that are relatable to not only the members of the band, but our fans, friends, families and well, anyone really," begins drummer, Anthony Caruso.
