We’re five best mates making music the only way we know how. From stadium-sized riffs to deeply intimate musical moments, from anthemic choruses that kick you in the chest, to soulful reflections that tug on the ol’ heartstrings…
We make honest music meant for feeling - with the door closed or the windows down.

Hands Like Houses - Wildfire (Lyric Visualiser)
Wildfire is the last track of the Strato(sphere) volume.
Wildfire is a song about the dystopian future that lies ahead and the possibilities of how we continue to edge towards an Armageddon. It’s sung from the perspective of being the last person left alone in a world that is crumbling but being too late to save it. We always feel so blind to our own destruction and this song presents the possibilities if we constantly let the toxic pieces of history repeat themselves. It’s terrifying that our world ending in fire and brimstone feels so possible and how could you not? All we hear about is the end and not of how we could begin a new way of living. I always feel that heaviness and I wanted a song that represented those emotions in a visual way. -Josh

Lyrics:
This sea of silence, is getting way too loud
The cold inside my head, has all the voices washing out.
Feel something stranger, and all I taste is rust
There’s nothing left but light, it’s slowly fading out.
I close my eyes again,
Cause this feels like a burning, fallout
Walk in to a wildfire
Burning, blackout
Walk in to a wildfire
I’m fighting through it
These acid clouds of blue
My eyes are full of dust and bitterness
Why can’t we see it
We’re poison to ourselves
The rubble left behind, is that how we remember us?
As ashes fall around us
We bury what we once loved
We once loved

Panic is the third song off our next batch of songs under Volume 2 - S T R A T O. Panic is a response to over stimulation, conspiracies, misinformation and the growing confusion that seems to keep arising. Whether it’s what’s in our water or when the world is ending, each day seems like there’s more of a reason to panic than just trying to be a human being. We are constantly distracted and take...

Hollow is the second song off our next batch of songs under Volume 2 - S T R A T O. Hollow is one of the darkest songs we’ve written. The lyrics feel like a letter but it’s not intended for any one person. It’s an insight into the mind of someone who feels so void of love and happiness that to leave this world feels like the only way to end the pain for yourself and for those around you. The wa...

24 Hours is the first song off our next batch of songs under Volume 2 - S T R A T O. This song is about getting lost in the cycles, when toxicity and negativity becomes so constant, there’s a deep space in your mind that gets filled with regrets, mistakes and hate. It constantly replays, every experience is re imagined and scrutinized, you wake up and it’s the first thing you feel, when you go ...

Paradise is track 4/4 from T R O P O - Vol 1. This song is about when you can’t seem to break the cycle of negative thinking and your mind is filled with guilt, shame and anger, twisting experiences and memories to leave them feeling inescapable. It explores the tendencies of being overwhelmed by anxiety, fear and self isolation. The concept seemed to naturally fit the instrumental and reinforc...

On Tour around Aus in March '24. Tickets at handslikehouses.live Better before is a song about the negative impact that comes with welcoming someone or a substance into your life, even if it has a toxic impact. For myself it plays into the concept of substances/addiction and how that can change how you perceive yourself, your relationships and your own way of living. I see it as a reflection of...

Also there's something addictive about how Josh says "Wildfire" and "Fallout" in the chorus
This gives me Fear Factory vibes, and I'm all for it.
The boys @ Valiant Hearts must have been so stoked when they first saw the name of this song
One of the best HLH song ever.
Still hits 🎯
Major Breaking Benjamin Vibes. ♥
I Heart
God, how I love this song, it gives me goosebumps🖤
Awesome🤌
Love song ♥️ amazing 💖
Sick! Adding to my 'songs to jam to' playlist
Awesome passion...
Few people hating on this but this is easily my favourite of there new releases. Loving the vibe of this song 👍🏼
I suggest HLH music should go to this direction more than previous album to differentiate from other cliche sound
Oh how far this band has fallen. Sad to see. Wish you guys luck on the next chapeter
This song is fucking fantastic. Love the direction and how dark it is. I love the change up in singing style.
What an amazing band.
Who is here from the Dusty 300 promo?
Me 😂 tried to find this song since I seen it lmao
Yep me too on both fronts
bad omens vibes
Amazing song yall- you earned yourself a new fan!!
Damn! I got to get used to josh but he its doing a pretty great job!!!!!!
I really like this!
The band definitely needed the new vocalist to bring back this kind of passion to the band. This whole EP is so emotional & exactly what was missing before he joined. Makes me so happy to see the rest of the band thriving with the new addition!!
Great song guys! This EP has fantastic
Banger
Certified
I really like this
I gave it a re-listen and while not perfect, it does not suck, absolutely not. But you need to change the name cause people are expecting HLH and it's something way too diferent now I'm sure if it was some other band people would love these songs, but for now you're simply hitting the wrong audience, some die hard fans like myself will probably stay but other people will just silently stop listening to everything you're putting out and will just stick to the old stuff instead or just completely abandon the band
I love the new direction of the band! ❤
You guys are just so great so talented love every song you guys are putting out absolute perfecting boys
Man, Trenton’s voice really formed a massive part of what made HLH, HLH.
loving this new direction that the bands is taking. Paradise, Panic, 24 hours and this one becoming my favs
This is amazing!
I really want to like this new direction you're taking out of respect and nostalgia (a fan since Lion Skin dropped) for you guys, and I think I got used to Josh's voice at this point (let's be honest, for this genre his voice is not a usual sounding one and it may seem weird and off putting to many at first), but the writing is lacking somehow. And it's strange cause I know you're absolutely capable of writing awesome tunes I didn't like the chorus vocal melody, for example, it was too repetitive and simplistic to my taste, and not in a good way, it's like you wanted to make it anthemic but it's not catchy enough for it. If we compare this to what Bad Omens now do, the biggest band with that type of sound currently, I think it definitely loses. So why listen to a lesser Bad Omens? Just my two cents guys. Hope I didn't sound too harsh, just trying to be honest. I'll stay on the lookout for future tunes
Haven't really vibed with the past couple of songs, but this is naughty 👀
Took some time getting used to the voice of Josh, but he is doing great! I remain a big time fan! Keep up the good work guys!
Taking some time getting used to the cheese slice with mayo for a logo on these videos.
This one of my new favorites songs I love this so much
Bad omens but mid, yeeeeeeessshhh
I agree! This is complete trash tbh
agreed
@@C_In_Outlaw3817 didn't think someone that found the band so trash would find their way back to every new song they put out. Biggest dick rider lol
@@quantummmmmmmm you need to look up the definition of dick riding lol. Maybe this person simply expects HLH to finally put out something that he/she would dig, but gets dissapointed every time? I can heavily relate to that, I keep giving them chances but they just keep releasing this octancore thing that sounds nothing like HLH that I loved and honestly it's frustrating enough to comment
GottDamn, I Heard "HLH" Way Back, An Stopped Listening to Them UntilNOW, This Song Found Me On SoundCloud🤣 Fucking Good Shit, Love The Voice On Both of the Singers
Absolute banger guys! 🫶🏻
will and jim wouldn't like this
The new stuff goes hard live. All of the band members seemed to be enjoying themselves more and Josh was great. Fully committed.
probably my favorite song of all time right now
Ok
Entirely different band but I like it!
I didn’t like any of the new HLH but this is pretty decent
This song is high energy and is a good pump tune for the gym 🏋🏻
This is awesome 👏🏼
New vocalist threw me for a loop. But good shit. Love it.
I keep coming back to this song and I didn't like it at first but now I really dig it. The new vocalist is skilled, but he's really, really different, sounds nothing like the previous dude, yet he doesn't deserve the hate he gets in the comments sometimes.
✌️❤️💪⚡️
