Hauntu Announce New Album “The Unknown Reigns” And Release Single “By Design”

San Diego’s Hauntu unveil their new single “By Design,” from their upcoming full-length “The Unknown Reigns,” due November 14 via Sell The Heart Records and Engineer Records. Blending post-punk, goth, and alt-rock elements, the song channels influences like The Wipers, PJ Harvey, and Drive Like Jehu. Following their acclaimed 2024 EP I, the new album dives deep into themes of disillusionment and resilience in modern America. Fierce, melodic, and unapologetically emotional, “By Design” sets the tone for Hauntu’s most ambitious and politically charged release to date.
