Meldic post-hardcore band Spite House, form Montreal, has joined Pure Noise Records for their upcoming album, Desertion. The new record will release on Sept. 12.
The record features some very personal, yet universal, emotions. “When I was 17, my dad passed away from suicide,” vocalist/guitarist Max Lajoie explains. “Then ten years later my mom called me to tell me she had cancer, and ten days later she passed..Desertion is more about how these tragedies have informed so much of my life -- it’s about trying to look them in the eye and reassess them as an adult. I want to move past them but I also want to take some kind of lesson from them.”
The band shared a video for "Desert" today from the upcoming record.
Desertion is the group's second album. They released a self-titled record in 2022. They'll be on the road in Europe and Canada soon.
