The darkest chapter to date for Melbourne metal boy band Banks Arcade has arrived in full, with multifaceted chaos lying in wait on the brand new EP DEATH 2, officially out now via UNFD.
Devouring and detailing death and disarray alongside vivid metaphors surrounding change, DEATH 2 weaves elements of hip hop, hard rock, industrial, metal and more alongside volatile soundscapes and shattering intimacy. For a band already well-versed in pushing genre boundaries in the heavier realms, Banks Arcade transcend into a whole new era via DEATH 2; and it’s an era to watch closely as they gaze into a massive year ahead.
Alongside the release of DEATH 2 today, Banks Arcade have also released the music video for a brand new single, Roulette, bringing riotous bounce and dark temptation to the surface.
Appearing at UNIFY Off The Record last year, alongside Northlane, In Hearts Wake, Make Them Suffer, RedHook and more, Banks Arcade also kicked off 2023 with their national Australian Future Lovers Tour, including a sold out show in Brisbane, and also toured North America with The Plot In You. And fresh off the back of releasing DEATH 2 , Banks Arcade will support Northlane on their The Dante Tour around Australia with ERRA and Landmvrks starting next week.
