The Maggie Pills H.E.L.L. Album tour at Altar Bar
On October 17th, the ferocious act The Maggie Pills are taking over Altar Bar in Hobart to play their sophomore album 'Hearts Enduring Lingering Loss'.
With twelve tracks filled with grunge distortion and fuzz-drenched menace, 'Hearts Enduring Lingering Loss' unpacks loss, desire, fear and defiance in equal measure.
H.E.L.L is more than the sum of its parts. It’s reflection, it’s the cyclical nature of things, it’s pain and joy and hope. It dreams of a brighter future, with echoes of the past and tales of myth mirroring the persistence of the human condition. It melds nostalgia, memory, and comforting reflection, with urgency and need and discomfort at ourselves and the world around us.
Joining them will be Tasmanian faves Woolworth Flushot, Dvrkworld + more to be announced.
This is an event not to be missed!

Self-produced by Perez, the album was nominated by Music Victoria for ‘Best Heavy Work’ as part of the Music Victoria Awards 2023 and by the Australian Music Prize as one of the best Australian albums released in 2023.
