High Vis formed in London in 2016 out of the wreckage of other bands — singer Graham Sayle and drummer Edward Harper had both come from a group called Dirty Money before this, and what they built next fuses the fury of English street punk with actual Britpop melody, which isn't a combination most hardcore bands bother attempting.
Guided Tour, their third album, came out in 2024 on Dais Records after sessions at London's Holy Mountain Studios with producer Jonah Falco — ten tracks the band has described as hitting like anthems for a country that badly needs some, sneering and hopeful in roughly equal measure.
