THE HARA didn't write "The Fallout" album for the industry. Why would they, when the strange, structureless world they live in has ground them down and made them spiral into doubt? And why would they, when they prize their authenticity as much as they do?

The Manchester, UK trio – vocalist Josh Taylor, drummer Jack Kennedy and guitarist Zack Breen - create from a place of undistilled, unadulterated intention and the songs all form the building blocks for their supercharged live shows, the environment where they feel like they blossom into their truest, best selves. For the album recording they absconded to the outskirts of Hereford with co-producers Brad Mair and Pete Hutchings (Nothing But Thieves/Royal Blood).

Their raucous genre mash-up of alternative rock, metalcore, and emo has already seen them grab the live circuit by the scruff of the neck and pick up support slots with pop-punk giants Sum 41, Nothing More, Escape the Fate and Ice Nine Kills. They've exploded across the festival circuit; Download, Slam Dunk, 2000 Trees, Kendal Calling, TRNSMT, Tramlines, Truck, Boomtown Fair and an incredible main stage set at both Reading and Leeds Festival.
