The Haunt embody heavy it in all its forms. Through emotionally charged lyricism, crushing musicality and the immersive energy of their live shows, siblings Ana and Max wield heaviness like a weapon, elevating the most vulnerable parts of their psyche through a death-defying blend of industrial, metal and alt-rock.
Since forming in 2015, The Haunt played clubs across Florida and soon toured the world alongside Palaye Royale. Accolades came quickly, with Kerrang! raving about the band’s “gothic edge, flashes of punk vibrancy and riot grrrl attitude” and Rock Sound dubbing them a “Breakout Artist,” while garnering over 40M streams.
The Haunt’s debut LP, New Addiction (Nettwerk), produced by Kevin Thrasher (blink- 182, Jelly Roll), is a bold step forward for the band’s evocative brand of rock, bolstered by supersonic sheen, Ana’s poignant vocals, and cameos from MISSIO (“Can People Really Change?”) and Escape The Fate (the hit single “Masochistic Lovers,” a darkly hedonistic duet shooting up the Active Rock chart to #27.
On New Addiction, the band spins tales of depression, toxic relationships, anxiety and toils of the modern world, highlighting the destructive nature of human duality. The heavy topics provide a cathartic experience fitting for their sold-out headline shows and at festivals like Download and Louder Than Life. It's ultimately proof in the power of self- belief and using every heartbreak to rise stronger. After a decade, The Haunt wouldn’t have it any other way.
