Los Angeles trio Failure – Ken Andrews, Greg Edwards , and Kellii Scott – kicked off their fall tour this week in support of their seventh studio album Location Lost, released earlier this year via Failure Records/Arduous Records/Virgin Music Group. The tour follows the band's spring run, which featured many sold-out shows. Quannnic will support on all fall headline shows, and tickets are available via failureband.com .

Location Lost features nine new tracks that showcase a focused, modern and ever-evolving vision of Failure's sound. It doesn't arrive as a victory lap or a nostalgia exercise. Instead, it sounds like a band actively negotiating w here — and who — they are now.

'It's very different,' Edwards says plainly of the follow-up to 2021's Wild Type Droid. 'T here are sounds and parts that really don't have any precedence within the Failure world.'

The album's lead single ' The Air's on Fire ' embodies this sense of disorienting unfamiliarity and recent single, ' A Way Down ,' is an homage to early '80s The Cure and Siouxsie & The Banshees, inspired by their angular guitar approach and the unapologetic dark atmosp here s. The most recent single, the largely acoustic breakup song ' The Rising Skyline ,' features Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams , whose longtime public admiration for Failure has unquestionably helped introduce the band to an entirely new generation of listeners.

The album also delivers dose after dose of Andrews, Edwards and Scott's signature creative and instrumental interplay, from the warning bell-like guitar chimes on propulsive opener 'Crash Test Delayed,' to the elastic, bass-driven groove of 'Halo and Grain' and the grinding, methodical wall of sound on 'Solid State,' which wouldn't have sounded out of place on 1996's all-time-classic Fantastic Planet. Other songs such as the slow-burning, dream-inspired closer 'Moonlight Understands' and the stuttering 'Someday Soon' emerged from singular, unrepeatable moments.

Failure's musical communion has intrigued critics, fans, and peers for more than three decades. Following Comfort and Magnified, the trio created what is largely considered one of the '90s most influential and innovative albums, 1996's Fantastic Planet. The 17-track collection earned rave reviews and onboarded a trove of new fans and also led the band to headline Lollapalooza's Second Stage and craft one of the era's most recognizable videos, ' Stuck on You .'

After a 17-year hiatus, Failure returned with The Heart Is a Monster in 2015, followed by 2018's In the Future Your Body Will Be the Furthest Thing from Your Mind and 2021's Wild Type Droid – all now available on Spotify for the first time since 2022.
