Set to kick off on April 15th in Seattle, the month-long run will see them traverse the United States (with a stop on Vancouver along the way) before wrapping in Los Angeles on May 15th. In addition to special guests Militarie Gun, who will perform on all the dates except LDB Festival, the run will feature support from Age of Apocalypse and Cold Gawd on select dates, along with two special appearances from Pissed Jeans on the East Coast. Tickets are on sale this Friday, February 21st at 10am local time HERE. The 25-date run will follow High Vis’ current European and United Kingdom headline run, which has seen the band perform to sold out rooms to high-energy crowds. High Vis was recently added to the BBC 6 Music A-List and was highlighted in a feature with Rolling Stone about the current rise of hardcore.  High Vis’ forthcoming headline tour comes on the heels of last fall’s release of their lauded album Guided Tour, which arrived in October via Dais Records. Guided Tour was praised by Pitchfork, Alternative Press, Revolver, Stereogum, and more upon its release and includes the singles “Guided Tour,” “Drop Me Out,” “Mob DLA,” and “Mind’s a Lie.”  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 (the pair 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.  Check out Guided Tour above, see full tour routing and album details below, and stay tuned for more from High Vis.
