HMLTD are ripping up the rule book for 2018
HMLTD are one of the most fun, dramatic and all-in bands around. As 2018 ticks round, they're ready to battle the forces of boring from the front lines.

Everyone dreams of tearing up the rule book from time to time. There's something freeing in disregarding convention, and no uncertain amount elation that can be gained from stepping out of line and doing whatever the hell you really want. It's a free-spirited nature a lot of bands strive to embody, though few are mastering the art of rocking the boat and making waves quite like HMLTD.
"We came together because of a shared ambition, and a shared aesthetic, and a shared desire to do pretty much the same thing," guitarist James describes. "Obviously we've all got different ideas of how we get there." Rather than balance out these differences, HMLTD thrive in them. The motley personalities that make up the band are a defining part of their identity and the music they create.
"It's like an action. It's like a craft," James portrays. "You just do it. You don't really think about anything." In defiance of the notion that making music means "that you have to be some sort of special talent, and you have to have this inspiration come down from the sky or something," HMLTD's music is an exercise in creativity run riot, boasting melodies as vivid as their energy is livid, every moment purpose-built to engage – for better or for worse.
