Destroy All Lines and Yeah That Agency are proud to present Alt. & Wolf & Chains double single launch for 'Devils Cut' and 'Taste Of Blood' at Jive Bar on August 27th with special guests tba.
Alt. is Dan Richards (vocals), Simon Aistrope (guitar), Daniel Wells-Smith (guitar), and Declan Fry (drums) from Adelaide, Australia.
alt. emerged in December 2019, with the drop of their first single, insubordinate, on the Dreambound YouTube channel. The next three music videos for ‘Chasing Safety’, ‘Nothingwithoutyou’ and ‘Pariah’ have also been featured on Dreambound to a massive reception gathering over 200,000 views since all singles were released
The anticipated debut EP ‘dysfunctional’ was released independently by alt. in April 2020; written with the help of Trenton Woodley (Hands Like Houses) Jimmy Alexander and Luke McKenzie (Awaken I Am), Zachary Brit (Young Lions, Dream on Dreamer), and Chris Lalic (Windwaker); produced at Avalanche Studios by Callan Orr (Dream on Dreamer, Young Lions, Bad/Love). Since it’s release the band have clocked over a million streams for the record as well as being featured on Spotify Editorial Playlist ‘Rock Out’ as the front cover. December 2020 saw the band finally perform their debut EP live to fans in Adelaide after nearly a year off stage due to covid which saw large audiences gather to witness this performance.
Somehow both fresh and nostalgic, their sound has been compared to Deftones, Bring Me The Horizon, Hands Like Houses, and YONAKA. This sound has led to bands like Belle Haven and Bad/Love both inviting the band to perform on their respective national tours in 2021, leaving audiences amazed by the unique performance of Alt. on stage.
