“Today, we are excited to reveal the latest song from our new album TNAOSD, Scissors,” announces frontman Lucas Woodland. “This song is a love letter to our favourite genre, post-hardcore – it’s heavy, catchy and emotional.
“We can’t wait for you guys to hear this one, as we step ever-closer to releasing the whole album next month.”

The Noble Art Of Self Destruction is due out on August 25 via SharpTone.
