Hands Like Houses

Hands Like Houses are a fresh and explosive 6 piece from Canberra, Australia. The band completed a headlining national tour in the latter half of 2010, impressing audiences with their electric blend of technical, effects-heavy songwriting with post-hardcore passion and stage presence. Driven by melodic and emotive vocals in the vein of Emarosa and The Getaway Plan, the band presents a rich and finely crafted mix of guitar and electronics, drawing from a broad range of influence including Closure in Moscow, Thrice and The Receiving End of Sirens. HLH traveled to the USA in early 2010 to record with Cameron Mizell of Chango Studios (Woe, Is Me, Sleeping With Sirens, Oceana). The following web releases, 'This Ain't No Place For Animals' and ‘Lion Skin (feat. Tyler Carter and Jonny Craig)' along with the band's self-produced acoustic version of 'Lion Skin' have received much praise and support from a rapidly expanding international fanbase. In 2011, HLH will be returning to the US to complete their highly anticipated debut full length at Chango Studios, to be followed by extensive touring both locally and overseas.
