Vocalist Chris comments:
“I am thrilled to finally share ‘Trauma Culture’ and open the door to our new narrative. ‘Trauma Culture’ represents relationship mania, a form of mental illness that is often overlooked for the extent of collective and individual damage dealt. Radical world views are colliding in this era of hyper-communication.
“Everything that happens around me has to do with me, and there is something I have to do to face this plot. Challenging the rules of society became a vessel of this dogma. With ‘Trauma Culture’ I process personal experiences as well as sociopolitical observations and I can’t wait to bring that hurt and sadness to the stage. While I condemn radicalisation, I empathically care for the victims of isolation.”
In the space of just two years, the band have made an impact in the music scene by self producing their music and videos, displaying their intensive and energetic demeanour. Debuting with four singles initially, it was their latest single ‘Exitwound’ (featuring Jack Bergin of Void of Vision) that gave the group a breakthrough and landed the band in the spotlight of Knotfest’s Countdown to Oblivion.
Musically, Half Me blend a modern rendition of metal and hardcore with highlights of 90s nu-metal. Pounding riffs and breakdowns are accompanied by brutal, yet sometimes elegant, vocals that all balance together to formulate the band’s own distinctive sound. Riding the high of their recent success, Half Me have sights set on releasing their highly anticipated debut album in 2022.
