"The Fallout represents THE HARA peeling back their skin and leaving them at their most exposed."

W: Wendy Row I: Cosmic Joke

THE HARA are no longer just "ones to watch"—they are a sonic riot that refuses to be ignored. Today marks the arrival of their brand-new album, The Fallout, a body of work that sees the Manchester-bred trio peeling back their skin to reveal a raw, exposed core. This isn't just an album; it’s a high-voltage transmission of personal trauma, toxic cycles, and the relentless grind of the independent music scene. From the crushing weight of "Kings" to the chaotic energy of "Easier to Die," the band masterfully weaves heavy riffs with vulnerable lyricism, proving that their "genre mash-up" of alt-rock and metalcore is the perfect vessel for their electric intensity.

Accompanying the album launch is the official video for "Twist the Arrows," a poignant visual diary that captures the jarring juxtaposition of life on the road. Filmed across their headline tours in Germany, Austria, and beyond, the footage oscillates between the euphoric, sweat-soaked highs of a packed stage and the quiet, aimless "non-band mode" of wandering European streets. Frontman Josh Taylor notes that the video acts as a window into the "come down"—the mental whiplash that occurs when the stage lights fade and the crushing weight of normality sets in. It’s a recurring theme for the band: finding escapism when the high disappears and the "numbers" of the industry start to feel like the only measure of worth.

The road to The Fallout has been paved with relentless touring and a videography that pulls no punches. The previously released visual for "Violence," featuring Bethany Hunter Jiménez (As December Falls), set the tone for the era by exploring the bruising reality of toxic relationships. Following their massive 2025 circuit—which saw them conquer the main stages of Reading and Leeds, Download, and Rock For People—THE HARA have refined their identity. They aren't just performers; they are a "breathtaking spectacle" that has shared stages with giants like Sum 41 and Ice Nine Kills, proving they can hold their own against the heavyweights of the scene.

With the album finally out in the wild, the band is trading the screen for the stage once again. Their UK headline tour kicks off today, January 23rd, running through to March 22nd. If their previous trajectory is any indication, these release shows will be a masterclass in raucous, emotive energy. THE HARA have spent years grabbing the live circuit by the scruff of the neck, and with The Fallout, they are finally ready to burn the house down.

Visual Volatility: A Legacy of Raw Cinematic Chaos

THE HARA’s videography has always functioned as a visceral extension of their sonic identity, acting as a gritty mirror to their evolution from alt-rock newcomers to metalcore heavyweights. Their visual history is defined by a "no-filter" approach, often placing the viewer in the crosshairs of intense emotional states. From the claustrophobic, toxic tension captured in "Violence" to the dark, intoxicating aesthetic of "Stay," the band utilizes high-contrast lighting and frenetic editing to mirror the "live-wire" energy of their stage presence.
