2018 is the year that Sydney five-piece, Polaris have cemented their place in the global scene among Australia’s most elite heavy music exports with a metalcore torch held high in their hands.

They recently slapped a sold-out sign on the ‘Dusk To Day’ Regional tour which followed the sold-out national ‘The Mortal Coil’ headline tour in April – two back to back sold out Australian tours in under 4 months. With no signs of slowing down, Polaris announce their biggest Australian national headlining tour with some heavy-weight international supports in tow. In November, Polaris will be back on the road hitting all major cities in Australia for their most ambitious run to date joined by The Devil Wears Prada from Ohio USA, Alabama’s Gideon and Melbourne’s very own, Thornhill.

“This November we will be doing another lap around the country with The Devil Wears Prada, Gideon & Thornhill. These shows are going to be the biggest headline shows we have ever had and to say I’m excited is a huge understatement with TDWP being my all-time favourite band you can bet you’ll be seeing me front and centre in the mosh every night of this huge run.” Says Polaris vocalist, Jamie Hails

To coincide with the tour, Polaris have released the new music video for Dusk To Day. “This was definitely our most ambitious clip in terms of concept and execution, and  it was really exciting to work on something with more of a visual narrative which we haven’t done in quite a while, with our friend Kieran Ellis Jones who we’ve been wanting to work with for a long time!” Says drummer, Daniel Furnari Daniel Furnari also adds, “Lyrically, Dusk to Day deals with insomnia, which is something that a couple of members of the band have really struggled with. It’s a song about that awful consuming anxiety that can comes from being awake when everyone else is at peace, and the way that can play tricks on the mind when it’s allowed to wander. After tossing around a few ideas we realised that to get this right we would have to tap into a feeling of paranoia, so we started to develop our own little psychological thriller short-film.
