Violent Soho have been really busy lately, so they may not have had time to respond to any of your emails, but they found a couple hours in their schedule to get out and enjoy some one-on-one time with their fans.
The band members hit up three independent Aussie record stores over the weekend — 24Hundred in Melbourne, Red Eye Records in Sydney, and Brisbane’s Rocking Horse — to shake hands, sign merch, and copies of their new album, WACO.
The band announced the signings earlier this month and the lines were out the door for each event. As you can see from the photos the band posted to their official Facebook page, everybody wants a piece of Violent Soho right now.
Of course, the signings aren’t the only thing the Brisbane rockers are doing to celebrate their new record. They recently announced an absolutely massive tour with brothers-in-arms DZ Deathrays and Dune Rats, which kicks off around the country this May.
WACO was recently named a triple j feature album and has been garnering some absolutely stellar accolades from fans and critics alike, with many comparing it favourably to the band’s previous album, the breakout smash Hungry Ghost.

“The only issue facing Violent Soho’s new effort was trying to dethrone their remarkably successful predecessor and overcome the massive weight put on their shoulders. Thankfully Waco, like a steroid infused gymjunkie, lifts it with seamless ease,” Tone Deaf’s Fraser Beattie said of the album.
“The beauty of Waco is its care free attitude and not taking itself too seriously. Violent Soho distance themselves from a zombified and stale scene of ‘popular music’ and develop a sound they can label as their own,” Beattie added. WACO is available now.
