VOWWS release new single ‘Shudder’ featuring Josh Freeze & James “Munky” Shaffer

,

Rising Australian duo VOWWS have been drawing attention and stirring a quiet, confident buzz in their chosen home of Los Angeles in the lead-up to their highly anticipated new album – which has not gone unnoticed by some conspicuous peers in the artist community. 

For their latest single SHUDDER, they were joined by no others than Josh Freeze from A Perfect Circle and James ‘Munky’ Shaffer from KORN. Alongside the new artistically outstanding music video, the band finally announce their upcoming album “I’ll fill your house with an army”, to be released on October 24th, 2025 via Out Of Line Music. The album is now available for pre-order on CD and limited corona vinyl.

VOWWS already count the likes of Deftones, Korn, A Perfect Circle, Gary Numan and Billy Corgan amongst their fans owing to their singular blend of industrial electronica and alternative rock. Singer-keyboardist Rizz and singer-guitarist Matt James have elevated their sound and artistic vision, creating an adventurous, unique work set to make a mark in alternative music in 2025.

VOWWS now return with I’ll Fill Your House With an Army, their most ambitious and fully realized album to date. The duo purposefully took time over the last two years to hone in on the perfect collection of demos for their new album, before enlisting Billy Howerdel (A Perfect Circle) to help record and re-imagine each song – reflecting their commitment to honouring the art of creation, in defiance of a music industry that prioritises quantity over quality.

This approach has also seen them become involved in the highest echelons of the fashion world, delivering compositions, collaborations and performances to Commes Des Garçons, Alyx, Givenchy and Byredo.

Having already built a cult following through tours with Deftones, Twin Temple, and Poppy, as well as a live performance at Golden Gate Park alongside System of a Down and The Mars Volta, VOWWS are poised to cement their legacy with this release.
