House Of Cards (Blood Red Vinyl)

The Amity Affliction return with one of the most personal and devastating records of their career.

Following a decade-plus run as one of Australia’s most influential heavy bands, marked by ARIA chart-topping albums, platinum certifications, and global touring off landmark releases like Let The Ocean Take Me and This Could Be Heartbreak, the new album turns inward with unflinching honesty.
