Hot Water Music Announce New Album Featuring Members of Turnstile, Thrice, and Alexisonfire
The post Hot Water Music Announce New Album Featuring Members of Turnstile, Thrice, and Alexisonfire appeared first on Consequence.
Hot Water Music are celebrating their 30th anniversary in a big way. In addition to embarking on a previously announced 2024 tour, the veteran post-hardcore band is releasing a guest-filled new album titled Vows on May 10th.
The LP features contributions from Daniel Fang and Brendan Yates of Turnstile; Thrice; Dallas Green of Alexisonfire and City and Colour; The Interrupters; and Popeye Vogelsang of Calling Hours and Farside.
In advance of the album’s release, Hot Water Music have unveiled the singles “Menace” and “Burn Forever,” neither featuring any guests.
“In this day and age, it’s easy to get caught up in day-to-day frustrations,” singer-guitarist Chuck Ragan says of the song “Menace,” adding, “What isn’t easy all the time is recognizing our ability to choose our mental state. We own the power to slow down enough to be present in our anger, realizing the paths away from hatred and preparing ourselves for the next time we cross ways with menace.”
Regarding the other new song, fellow singer-guitarist Chris Wollard remarks, “‘Burn Forever’ is about processing grief. Allowing it to happen, and also about the things we learn to help us through it.”

The album was produced by Brendan McTiernan, an influential hardcore veteran himself as a member of the bands Battery, Ashes, and Be Well.
“The theme that kept coming up while working on this record was growth — how writing a song, recording an album, or being in a band is like planting a seed and helping it grow,” state Hot Water Music collectively. “We think a lot of that had to do with looking back and realizing that over 30 years, we’ve managed to make something special that we all really love.”
Following a UK jaunt in March, Hot Water Music will launch a North American tour in early May, featuring special guests Quicksand. Tickets for that outing are available here.
