Band information
Since forming in 2007 from the ashes of other metal bands Isolar and Leechseed, House of Thumbs has become a fixture of the Melbourne metal scene.
Upon the termination of Isolar's vocalist, House of Thumbs reformed several months later upon the introduction of Linden Audino on vocals, previously of Leechseed, whom the band came into contact through Sheri-Jesse Tantawy of Black Like Vengeance.
The band combines death and thrash metal techniques and vocals with the polyrhythmic patterns and discordant melodies associated with technical death metal, math metal and experimental metal. 2008 saw House of Thumbs release its debut EP, "Strangle Fiction" to some acclaim and on the back of this they toured throughout regional Victoria. It was on these shows that House of Thumbs developed a reputation for unusual merchandise, unveiling a line of plaster thumb ornaments called the "anti-dice" (and also, the "thumbchuckers").
The band's debut release Crossing the Rubicon was released at the end of 2009, and represented a big step forward for the band in terms of songwriting and production. The album was recorded in its entirety by the band, and was mixed and mastered by Ren Reich of Melbourne/Reich Records. The album has been met with positive reviews and press to this point. An album launch and Australian tour is in the process of being finalised.
