In doing everything from design, recording and show booking, Starving Millions have been fearlessly DIY in their ethos of keeping everything in house as much as possible. The band is never ones to sit on idle hands and have released a slew of recordings and singles since their beginning.

As well as this, Starving Millions have made themselves no strangers to touring. Completing numerous tours up and down New Zealand, most recently with their Australian counterparts Disparo, and are set to embark on their 3rd tour of Australia to mark the release of their fifth studio recording V on Australian label Goodtimes Records.

The new EP V, out September 1st, showcases a more focused and progressive approach to a sound created through a love of Hardcore and Punk, taking influences from such bands as Gallows, Norma Jean and Touche Amore among others. The songs within are those of a band who have grown together as a unit and refuse to accept current local and world injustices. At a mere 13 mins of music this EP packs in 5 tracks with a punch and showcases the direction of where the band is taking their music.

The band will be debuting the new EP live to Australian audiences through the second half of September, and then during November & December in New Zealand.
