I had the chance to catch up with Sean Harmanis of Make Them Suffer while the band was tearing it up in Europe. In this exclusive interview, we dive into their 2025 Australian Regional Tour, the excitement of performing tracks from therir critically acclaimed self-titled album live, and their upcoming spot on Australia’s first-ever heavy music cruise, the Hellbound Cruise. 🚢🤘
Sean also shares some nostalgic memories with Make Them Suffer from hitting the road in small Aussie towns, reminiscing about the early days of touring with Make Them Suffer and why local bakeries and pub parmies are still the real reason they’re eager to return to regional Australia. 🥪🍻 He talks about the stripped-back nature of these intimate shows, where the focus is all on the music and fans, and the thrill of seeing crowds finally singing the new tracks word for word.
Whether you’re in Gosford, Dubbo, or on a boat surrounded by mosh pits and open water, Make Them Suffer promises an unforgettable experience.
Check out the full interview to hear all about the tour and Sean’s thoughts on connecting with fans outside the major cities.
