Amplifying the heavier sound from their last album Death Valley Paradise, Halo Effect delivers hard-hitting riffs, soaring choruses, and fuse-lighting technical solos. Fans got a first taste of Halo Effect last year with lead single, “Unbreakable” before the band came out swinging in 2024 with “Hourglass“. Clearly not a one trick pony, the group then flipped everyone’s expectations upside down, sharing “Landslide (Piano Version)” from the indie store edition of the CD, which is performed on piano! Most recently, the band pivoted again, sharing accessible earworm “Savages“. Halo Effect is available to pre-order at earache.com/krisbarrasband, including colour vinyl (including a signed white & black splatter edition), signed CD, cassette, and on digital platforms. The indie store only CD, Halo Effect – Piano & Acoustic Edition, includes alternative artwork alongside 5 bonus acoustic and piano versions of album tracks. Pre-ordering that edition also grants entry to one of the intimate in-store events where Kris and Josiah from the band will do a short acoustic set and meet fans for autographs and photos.
