With their groove induced melodic cruelty, Sydney based five-piece Tensions Arise have built a sound of their own, in the process quickly distinguishing themselves as pre-eminents in their home city. Early 2012 saw the band heading to Hollywood, California to record the follow-up album to the highly successful Welcome to Sin City EP, with the 'ear for talent' Logan Mader (ex Machine Head).
Tensions Arise are bringing a new light into the Australian metal scene, and with the aid of a producer responsible for world-renowned artists such as; Devildriver, Gojira and Divine Heresy, the future for Tensions Arise and Australian metal, is nothing short of exhilarating….
Tensions Arise are releasing Stand In Defiance on Friday 24th August at The Bald Faced Stag, alongside The Blackened Beneath, Thrashed, Not Another Sequel Just Another Prequel & Aussie metal Icons Frankenbok.
