News : A Secret Death & Safe Hands split 7″ and tour

By on February 18, 2014

Last year saw originally-Gold Coast based band A Secret Death come out of hiatus for a tour with Japan’s Palm, and holy shit were they a damn fine live band. So it’s definitely good news that the now-Melbourne based band are touring again, this time alongside Newcastle’s Safe Hands, to celebrate a split 7″ that the two bands are releasing through Monolith Records & Midnight Funeral on March 24th.

““We’re pretty sure A Secret Death are only doing this because we lent them gear on a tour last year,” commented Safe Hands guitarist Mick Ayton. Referring to both band’s national run in support of legendary US act Norma Jean, A Secret Death vocalist Nathan Wyner confirmed that “we’re only doing this because Safe Hands lent us gear on a tour once”. 

“We’re fully stoked to be given this opportunity to ride A Secret Death’s coattails” said Safe Hands vocalist Benjamin Louttit, before Wyner suggested that this writer “should have an office maz”.”
