‘MUTATION’
and make
Like A Version debutstream ‘Pyromaniac’
To coincide with making their long-awaited triple j Like A Version debut today, putting a horn-infused punk-goes-pop twist on Tate McCrae’s 2023 chart-busting single ‘Greedy’, Eora/Sydney-based alt-rock shapeshifters RedHook have officially announced their sophomore album, ‘Mutation’ – out Friday, November 22 (independently in Australia and internationally via Adventure Cat Records).
Pre-order / Pre-Save HERE
Following on from their debut 2023 LP ‘Postcard From A Living Hell’, ‘Mutation’ was produced by the band’s good mate Stevie Knight (Stand Atlantic) with assistant production from RedHook’s own Craig Wilkinson and mixed by James Paul Wisner (Underoath, Paramore).
The record will be stacked with previous singles ‘Pyromaniac’, ‘Cannibal’ feat. Alpha Wolf, ‘Breaking Up With’, ‘Scream 2’ and ‘Tourist’ and see RedHook double down on everything that makes them one of the most exciting and paradigm-shifting bands in the modern heavy space.
‘Mutation’ will be available worldwide on Friday, November 22

11. ‘Tourist’Frontwoman Emmy Mack comments: “‘Mutation’ felt like the perfect name for this record because we wanted it to feel like an evolution in every single way, not just in RedHook’s sound, but in the stories we’re telling and the messages behind them. We want to offer new perspectives, challenge old ways of thinking and just hardcore double-down on being unapologetically ourselves. RedHook has always felt like a bit of a misfit. A lot of people don’t quite ‘get’ us. But we didn’t make this record for those people. We made it for the ones like us. The misfits, the outliers, the weirdos. We can’t wait for you to hear it.”
The news comes as RedHook gear up for their biggest Australian headline shows ever this August and September. The tour package is bursting with femme power, with the band to be joined by Naarm/Melbourne melodic rock force The Beautiful Monument and Mulubinba/Newcastle pop-punk stalwarts Eat Your Heart Out, with Boorloo/Perth metalcore rising stars Patient Sixty-Seven opening the night.
‘Postcard From A Living Hell’ peaked at #10 on the ARIA Album Charts and was triple j’s Feature Album of the Week. Previous singles off ‘Mutation’ have been added to full rotation on triple j, and playlist support has been seen from Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Deezer. The band has also been featured on the cover of Spotify’s ‘All New Rock’, ‘Rock Out.’, ‘Homegrown + Heavy’, and Amazon Music’s ‘Breakthrough Rock’.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
