The Host

We all face an entity we can’t escape. It may rear its head under the guise of a drug, a drink, a hobby, or a significant other. No matter how bad it gets, we go back for more until we just can’t anymore…and nothing remains.

Acres turn this universal struggle into inspiration for their aptly titled third full-length album, The Host [Solid State]. The UK quartet—Ben Lumber, Alex Freeman, Jack Rogers, Ash Scott—confront this universal affliction head-on with an unpredictable and undeniable hybrid of insurgently catchy melodies, neck-breaking grooves, and disarmingly seductive soundscapes.
