Make Them Suffer is the self-titled fifth studio album by Australian metalcore band Make Them Suffer. The album was released on 8 November 2024 via SharpTone Records.[11][12] It is their first album with keyboardist/co-lead vocalist Alex Reade.

Background and promotion

[edit]

The first single for the album, "Doomswitch" was released on 13 October 2022. It marked the debut of Alex Reade, replacing the band's previous keyboardist/vocalist Booka Nile who left earlier that year due to sexual assault allegations.[13] Several more singles were released within the next two years, including "Ghost of Me" and "Epitaph". The release of the single "Oscillator" came with the announcement that the album would be released on 8 November 2024.[14] "Mana God" was the album's last pre-release single, released on 11 October 2024.[15]

The band has toured in between singles' releases; from September to October 2023 in North America with fellow Australian metalcore bands Parkway Drive, Northlane, and The Amity Affliction,[16] at the 2024 Download Festival with fellow Australian metal bands Karnivool, Thy Art Is Murder, and Alpha Wolf,[17] and from August to September 2024 in Australia with Bury Tomorrow, Spite, and Bloom.[18]
