German heavy alternative outfit Half Me have announced second album Dogma for 23 October through Arising Empire.
Recent singles 'Weather Eye', 'Built On Your Blood' and 'Fear Is The New Belief' point toward a darker and more aggressive record combining hardcore and metalcore.
Conceptually, Dogma examines fear, social division and systems that keep people distracted rather than questioning what surrounds them.
The announcement arrives ahead of Half Me's first headline tour of Australia, where they will be joined by Diesect, Darkmatter and Kids Cultists across a run beginning in Perth on 22 October. The album campaign therefore moves almost immediately from recording into a substantial international live phase.
