Hey, are you guys signed? If not, that's absolutely ridiculous. You guys are so amazing and unknown. And your lyrics are beautiful, dude. So excited for the album. HURRY IT UP. :D
Thanks so much! Yes we are still unsigned, hopefully this will change with this album though. We just need people to spread the word, its the only hope we have!
Thanks again! we’re doing everything we can to get this album out.
Any word on you guys releasing a new track?
Not just yet, putting together our gameplan. But we’ll be announcing anything through our facebook, make sure you’ve got us on yours :) facebook.com/handslikehouses
You dudes looking forward to Sounds Of A Silhouette?
Oh hell yeah we are. So many of our good friends from all over the country going to be in one place on one show. And the lineup just keeps getting better, its seriously worth people coming across from the east coast :)
I reallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreally want to hear the new stuff. :)
So badly.<3
We’re listening to it non-stop, so insanely proud of what we’ve put together. I reallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreally think it’s going to be worth the wait to hear it ;)
im inlove with you guys. you guys gonna have a pre-order with the album. i hope you guys do:) ill buy the biggest one you guys have.
hell yeah :) can’t wait to put all that side of things together, now the CD is done we just have some behind the scenes work to nail and then its all guns blazing! make sure you’ve got us on facebook.com/handslikehouses and any announcements will be made through there.

Coops is a cutie ;)
Haha he’s a bit special ;)
hey guys, have you finished recording yet? :)
Why yes…. yes we have ;)
One:Hundred won't be on the album? Or did you guys change the lyrics and the title?
Short answer: It’ll be on the album :)
Long answer: We left it off the tumblr as its an older song and I felt that lyrically it was substandard compared to the rest of the album. we’ve done a lot of work to it musically though, it sounds massive and definitely has its place amidst the other songs. just a personal thing as far as not posting the lyrics. they’ll find their way somewhere eventually :)
What tuning is your acoustic music in? :)
I think we recorded The Sower in Drop B and Lion Skin in Drop C. Hope it helps!
you guys are such a great band, i'm so glad to find you guys a couple of months back. your lyrics are some of the best lyrics i've ever heard, it's hard to find some really well written lyrics these days. hope you guys come to new york soon<3
Thankyou so much :) we work hard to make sure that everything we do, we do well. means the world that its appreciated <3 can’t wait to get to NY. next time we’re in the US hopefully will be to tour.
is there any place I can find guitar tabs for Lion Skin? It's one of my favorite songs and it would be awesome to learn how to play it :)
Can't wait for the full-length!
Hey man! We get asked this regularly and are going to look into ways to get the tabs online. We write most of our music via TabIt but we also know most people use GuitarPro so we’ll try find a way to make it easy to read and/or download for everyone. Add us on facebook.com/handslikehouses and once we work it out, we’ll post it up there :)
Out of curiosity due to my laziness, do you guys have a release date for your full length?
Not as yet, no. Lots of things to work out but any wait will be for the best :) we’re super anxious to get it out there, its been a long time in the works.
A Definition of Not-Leaving
I wish I’d just stood and let the sun creep through me.
Instead of my attempts to build
Slingshots, spools and sinkers to bring in the sky.
Inventions out of sticks and stones,
A crown dusted off from beneath the bones.
A white liar, protector of our hearts and homes.
Stay.
Don’t go.
I’ll eat you up.
I love you so.
I want you to follow and find me,
Howl like its us and noone else,
We could keep out the sadness and stand so tall,
We could run like wild things, and lie right where we fall.
Heyy guys. What are your names along with the instrument you play? I cant find your names anywhere. & i wanna know em!
Sure :)
