Senses Fail To Return To Australia This Year For Headline Tour

In support of their 2018-released seventh studio album, If There Is Light It Will Find You, US alt-rockers Senses Fail will return to Australia this year for a headline tour. 

Set to kick off in July, the New Jersey quintet have confirmed shows in Brisbane, Newcastle, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. 

The tour will be Senses Fail's first Australian run in over five years. 

 “I don’t think people are going to listen to music right now that isn’t serious," frontman James "Buddy" Nielon said of  If There Is Light It Will Find You. 

"They’re taking a look at the shit around them and saying, ‘No, no, no. We need to have a real conversation.’ Now, whether that’s dealing with personal sadness, or it’s something political, it still takes things earnestly. It’s all a relative angst. Some of the songs may not be ‘political’, but they are topical. There’s a song about a mass shooting because it happens all the time now. How are you supposed to process that?

"The track, Gold Jacket, Green Jacket is like a State of the Union Address for millenials who are being told they are failing and not doing enough. But we inherited this world from you guys [Baby Boomers], fuck you. I went to college; I tried to get the job. It’s different now. I can’t progress like you could. It’s a different world than the ones our parents inherited. And maybe it’s time to burn down this world that was made.”

Tickets for all stops of the tour go on sale from 10am this Friday (12 April). For more details, click on theGuide or scroll down.
