Acres

About Acres

Acres are an English rock band from Portsmouth, Hampshire. Formed in 2011, by Alex Freeman (guitar), Matt Tubb (guitar), Richard Morgan (vocals), John Osola (bass) and Matthew Hiscock (drums), the band experienced a large number of lineup and sound changes throughout their career. On their debut, self-titled EP (2012), they played screamo, then embracing elements of post-metal and doom metal on their second EP Solace (2014). Morgan departed from the band in 2015, replaced by Ben Lumber, who brought a more melodic sensibility to the band, particularly clean singing. On their 2017 EPs Smoke and Decay and In Sickness & Health, they veered into melodic hardcore and emo, while on their debut album Lonely World (2019), they played post-rock and post-hardcore. On their second album Burning Throne (2023) and third album The Host (2025), they played alternative metal and post-hardcore.
