The 50 best albums of 2024
The Kerrang! countdown of the 50 albums that shaped 2024.
Watch the video for High Vis’ new single Mind’s A Lie, taken from the band’s upcoming third album Guided Tour.
London punks High Vis have just announced the highly-anticipated follow-up to 2022’s Blending.
The five-piece are set to drop album number three, Guided Tour, on October 18 via Dais Records, with a big European and UK tour to follow.
They’ve also broadened their musical horizons with new single Mind’s A Lie, which samples South London vocalist/DJ Ell Murphy but features the type of vital message that High Vis have always presented throughout their lyrics.
“I wanted to look at how quickly negative habits can take control when you lack a positive or constructive outlet for your energy,” explains frontman Graham Sayle. “While the language of mental health provision has found fertile ground in the churn of social media, access to essential services has been decimated by the indifference of successive Tory governments. Further division has been stoked through governmental rhetoric and media scapegoating. Without adequate support in times of crisis, life can quickly spiral into an angry and isolated existence.”
