Australian-born, Los Angeles-based dark alternative duo VOWWS have announced a run of EU and UK headline shows for February, marking their first standalone dates of 2026. The shows land in support of their acclaimed new album I’ll Fill Your House With An Army, out now on Out Of Line Music.
The February headline run offers fans a rare and intimate chance to catch VOWWS after what has been a huge couple of years for the band. Through tours with Deftones, Twin Temple and Poppy, plus a standout appearance at Golden Gate Park alongside System Of A Down and The Mars Volta, the duo have built a passionate global following. Their 2025 schedule has included more than a dozen major festivals and a high-profile tour with Jerry Cantrell, cementing what is arguably their most definitive year to date.
In addition to the headline dates, VOWWS will join the Kim Dracula European tour, taking their brooding, cinematic sound into even larger venues across the continent.
Tickets for the headline shows go on sale Friday 21 November at 10am GMT / 11am CET.
Released on 24 October 2025, I’ll Fill Your House With An Army captures VOWWS at their most ambitious and uncompromising. The record was shaped by two years of meticulous development and a determination to reach their highest creative standard. It features the singles Blood’s On Fire, Hurt You and Pulls Me Apart, all of which earned key playlist support on Spotify and Apple Music, as well as spins from BBC Radio 1.
The crushing single Shudder features a blistering guest performance from James “Munky” Shaffer of KORN, who also appears in the adrenaline-fuelled visualiser, and continues the band’s ongoing collaboration with drummer Josh Freese (Nine Inch Nails).
VOWWS purposefully took their time to hone the perfect collection of songs for the new album, calling in A Perfect Circle’s Billy Howerdel to help record and reimagine each track. The result is a record that honours the craft of songwriting and production in an era when the music industry often prioritises quantity over quality.
“This album is a reflection of the way the world feels to us, the big things and the little things, internal and external,” says Matt. “We see and feel a lot of beauty in the broken things in life, in the world and in ourselves. The music we make is an expression of that. We took a long time to make this record. We had already recorded 20 songs before we asked Billy to work with us, and it had already been so long since we released an album.
“I was desperate to just get something out, but Rizz kept saying the record wasn’t what it needed to be yet. She was right. We realised we could make something more elevated than we thought, and we could do things we had spent years telling ourselves we wouldn’t or couldn’t do.”
In the process they worked with Josh Freese and James “Munky” Shaffer, collaborators they never dreamed they would have the chance to create with. “We pulled ourselves out of our comfort zone, and it was pretty hard,” Matt continues. “We had to push through a lot of self-doubt, and there were times we weren’t sure if we could finish it.
“We lost ourselves completely in this record, and it became a part of us too. In the end, we made something that’s more purely VOWWS than anything we’ve done before, and we couldn’t be prouder of it.”
The band’s commitment to artistic integrity has also led to collaborations with some of fashion’s most iconic houses, including Comme Des Garcons, Alyx, Givenchy and Byredo, further cementing their reputation as boundary-pushing, multidisciplinary creators.
VOWWS’ EU/UK dates promise to bring the dark, cinematic world of I’ll Fill Your House With An Army to life on stage.
