Adelaide rock hardcore band The Killchoir Project managed to snatch some attention of mainstream audiences. Its crossover appeal was enough to the see the band play alongside acts such as The White Stripes, Rollins Band, Grinspoon and more.

Since the demise of TKCP last year, bass/vocalist Peter Wood, guitarist Benjamin Pix and drummer Jared Brown, have been working behind the scenes on a new project called ‘The Hot Lies’.

With Wood now fronting the outfit, the lineup was completed with the addition of bass player Leighton Rose, ex- I killed the prom queen, and guitarist Josh Delsar, ex- Day of Contempt.

Drawing inspiration from bands as diverse as At-the drive in, AFI, the Foo Fighters and Refused, The Hot Lies defines its sound by lacing the power and passion of hardcore with the hooks of pop melody.

The result: Hard yet melodic rock.

The band will be hauled up in the studio in the upcoming months to record a debut EP for Sydney label Resist Records.
