IUF caught up with Australian hyperpop-metal outfit Windwaker during their tour stop in San Antonio, TX. Vocalist Liam Guinane and bassist Indey Salvestro sat down to discuss their North American run alongside fellow Aussies Make Them Suffer, Swedish heavy-hitters Aviana, and U.S. metalcore veterans Like Moths to Flames. With their sophomore album, Hyperviolence, making waves in the metal scene, Windwaker is commanding well-deserved attention.
Liam and Indey reflect on the high-energy shows, the camaraderie built on the road, and the unique experience of exploring new cities—often through late-night gas station stops. A key moment for the band has been the return of Liam Guinane, who was part of Windwaker’s early days and has now stepped back in as frontman, bringing a renewed energy and fresh dynamic to the group. More than a decade into their journey, the band feels like they’re only just getting started. And one thing’s for sure—when it comes to snacking on tour, these guys take it seriously. Tune in now and be sure to buy and stream Hyperviolence and its Expansion Pack, out now worldwide via Fearless Records. Another stellar signing for Fearless—they just don’t miss.
