Hands Like Houses announce self-titled EP

Australia rock act Hands Like Houses have dropped details on their new EP.

The band’s self-titled EP will be released on October 23 via UNFD. Recently, the band unveiled their new single “The Water,” which you can stream below. When it comes to the single, vocalist Trenton Woodley said:

“I picture the protagonist as some beautiful, fantastical, strange and surreal sea creature that has come to live among us, but wants to go home," he says. "I feel like the voice of this song is one that has done its best to make a place to belong, but knows it doesn’t, can’t or won’t, and is trying to say a heartfelt, honest goodbye.

Of course, that’s not to say there’s not a piece of me buried in that voice. I don’t think you get to come this far in life without wondering if you really belong to this particular path you’ve found yourself on, if there’s not somewhere else or someone else you’re meant to be. The harder the times, the bigger the question becomes in your mind. When it comes down to it, it’s a song about closing doors and opening new ones.”

Pre-orders for the EP, which also includes Hands Like Houses’ previous single “Space,” can be made here.

This Saturday (August 29), Hands Like Houses will have a special livestream concert with special guests Sputnik Sweetheart and Aya Yves. The concert will take place at 8 pm. AEST. For people in North America, the concert will start at 6 a.m. EST/3 a.m. PST. The concert can be viewed here.
