(September 17, 2024) - London’s High Vis shares the latest offering from their forthcoming album Guided Tour with the new single “Drop Me Out.” With furious guitars and frontman Graham Sayles’ visceral vocals, “Drop Me Out” perfectly exemplifies the power High Vis exudes as a band, showcasing one side of the band’s musically diverse new album that ranges from hardcore to post punk to Madchester baggy. “Drop Me Out” follows previously released singles “Mob DLA” and “Mind’s a Lie,” which features samples of vocals from celebrated South London singer and DJ Ell Murphy, combines inspirations from house, garage and Pirate Radio, and arrived with a stunning video written and directed by Martina Pastori. Together, the singles start to paint a portrait of what fans can expect from Guided Tour, High Vis’ ambitious and exploratory full length that is available for vinyl pre-order now in various exclusive colorways via Dais Records, Rough Trade and the band’s website ahead of its release next month. Pre-order the vinyl HEREGuided Tour will also be available on cassette via Flatspot Records, which is available for pre-order HERE


Coming off a spectacular string of shows in Australia supporting Speed, High Vis will embark on the Corpus Grows tour across North America as direct support to Show Me The Body, alongside additional support from BIB, Special Interest, ZelooperZ, Bearcat, and Black Noi$e on select dates, next week. Following the North American run, High Vis will traverse Europe for their headline tour slated for this November and December with support from Pain of Truth ahead of their forthcoming UK shows in February 2025 with support from Narrow Head. Tickets can be found HERE and full tour routing is below. 


On Guided Tour, High Vis sounds like a band reaching for new heights, bristling with energy. Recorded across a few weeks at Holy Mountain Studios in London with producer Jonah Falco and engineer Stanley Gravett (who also helmed the sessions for High Vis’ Blending), the results feel dynamic and dialed-in, like anthems burned into sense memory through sweat and repetition. The album’s 11 songs span the spectrum of contemporary guitar music, sharpened by experience, camaraderie, and societal frustrations. From swaggering street punk to jangling indie sneer to heavy alt to shoegazey spoken word, the group’s chemistry transmutes any style to their unique intensity. 


Since 2018, High Vis has polished their progressive hardcore sound with shades of post-punk, Brit pop, neo-psychedelia, and even Madchester groove, mapping a middle ground between hooks and fury, melodies and mosh pits. In 2019, High Vis released their debut album No Sense No Feeling, which broadened the scope of the hardcore veterans beyond scene while creating self-described “post-industrial-Britain misery punk.” The celebrated follow up, 2022’s Blending includes the tracks “Talk For Hours” and “Trauma Bonds” and not only expands upon the sonic breadth of High Vis, but vocalist Sayle opened his chest cavity through his lyrics discussing social issues and political miseries while reaching a hand out to folks listening to give a message of hope.
