Nadat de Australische post-hardcore band Drown This City aankondigde ermee te stoppen, heeft zangeres Alex Reade bekendgemaakt dat ze als toetsenist bij de eveneens Australische band Make Them Suffer aan de slag gaat. Raede neemt hiermee het stokje over van Booka Nile die in 2020 pauze nam van de band om deel te nemen aan Married At First Sight Australia en in 2022 officieel uit Make Them Suffer stapte.
De statements van beide bands luidden als volgt:
We are complete, and back in full force. ‘Doomswitch’ is out Friday, October the 14th.
Make Them Suffer
Alex Reade has joined Make them Suffer, playing an integral role in our new track, and injecting new life into the band. For the first time in over two years, we’re back on the touring circuit. We begin starting October in Australia, followed by November x December across North America. To say we cannot wait to be releasing new music is an understatement
It is with sadness that we announce the end of Drown This City.
Drown This City
While we hoped to continue creating music together for you all, throughout the stresses of the pandemic and a myriad of personal reasons, this eventually became increasingly difficult to achieve which has resulted in the decision to part ways as a band.
We would like to thank a number of key people for their support throughout the years – our long time manager @royandbear, @northlanejosh for his guidance and wealth of wisdom, the team at @unfdcentral for their time as our record label, and Jess Wust from @cultartists for her belief and time invested into us. Thank you to every band that we have toured and shared the stage with, engineers and crew, photographers and designers, and everyone who helped us along the way in any capacity – you know who you are.
Finally, a massive thank you to all of our fans, friends and family who supported us throughout our career – without you literally none of what we’ve been able to achieve would have been possible 🖤
Love,
Drown This City
2015 – 2022
