Following the success of 2011's Iconography, Travis Cook and Marcus Whale have put together another stellar album of gritty, futuristic electronica. Against a backdrop of adolescent heartbreak and woe, the pair utilize vocoders, drum machines and all manner of ultra-modern production in a mould similar to JAI PAUL or THE WEEKND. Upon hearing the debut single 'Hypothermia', Die Young promises to be an evolution in the band's sound, and a maturation in their song writing.
Beginning in Melbourne, the tour will see the lads stop in at Brisbane Fest, Rocket Bar in Adelaide and a location to be confirmed in Sydney.
