A Melbourne-based melodic metalcore band that formed in 2008, Feed Her to the Sharks released their self-funded debut in 2011 and soon found themselves attached to tours by '''Asking Alexandria''' and '''Suicide Silence'''. Following a year of heavy touring and scoring a contract with US-based agency Outerloop Management, the band reshuffled its line-up a little with the addition of Austrian drummer Jan Benkwitz (ex-'''Antares Predator''') and then recorded a second album in Sweden with '''Fredrik Nordström'''. ''Savage Seas'' appeared in mid-2013 after a national tour with '''Born of Osiris'''. In October the band will tour with '''Oceano''' and [[Aversions Crown]].
