VOWWS release final single “Re-Animator” ahead of album “I’ll fill your house with an army”
VOWWS
Australian-born, Los Angeles-based duo VOWWS have released their new single “Re-Animator” via Out Of Line Music. The track, available as a digital single and accompanied by an official video, is the final preview before the upcoming 11-track album “I’ll fill your house with an army”, set for release on October 24, 2025.
VOWWS says this about the new single: “It’s about living a delusional fantasy with your ride-or-die by your side. Delusions of grandeur in a shitty small town, or in a suburb where nothing ever happens, believing against all evidence that you’re destined for some big thing, or that your life is actually a story for the ages. All you need is someone else to believe it, then everything else can be falling apart around you and it doesn’t matter.”
The new album will be released on digital, CD and yellow/black sunburst vinyl formats. The duo worked with Billy Howerdel (A Perfect Circle) on the recording and re-imagining of their demos.
Following extensive touring in Europe with Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains) and festival slots at Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Nova Rock, Download UK, Hellfest, Resurrection Festival, and Graspop, VOWWS will stage their largest headline concert to date on October 30, 2025 – El Rey Theatre, Los Angeles (with N8NOFACE).
