POLARIS Welcome Fans Inside Their Touring Home on New 'Bus Invaders' Episode

Australian metalcore heavyweights Polaris have opened the doors to life on the road in the latest episode of Digital Tour Bus' long-running "Bus Invaders" series. Filmed during Electric Callboy's "Tanzneid World Tour" alongside Scene Queen, frontman Jamie Hails gives fans an authentic behind-the-scenes look at the band's home away from home, offering a candid glimpse into the routines, comforts, and organized chaos that come with life on an international tour.

The tour begins in the lounge, where the band are unwinding by watching golf on television after previously following Formula 1, while Jamie keeps up with the race on his phone. Between sports broadcasts—including a bit of ice hockey and basketball—the crew have also been spending downtime revisiting The Mummy and The Mummy Returns. Jamie then proudly introduces what the band jokingly calls the "holy drawer," a compartment packed with bottled water, before showing off the assortment of snacks and food that keeps everyone fueled between shows.

Guitarist Rick Schneider takes over to showcase the kitchen area, revealing drawers stocked with touring essentials and a refrigerator that's noticeably better supplied with beverages than food. Inside are protein yogurts, salsa, cheese, jelly, and a handful of other quick snacks, while the freezer is home to ice cream and frozen meals for long travel days. As with most touring buses, the toilet follows one simple rule: it's reserved for liquids only.

The tour concludes with Jamie leading viewers through the sleeping bunks, where each member has personalized their space in a different way. Some bunks are filled with gadgets and personal items, others embrace a minimalist setup, and a few even feature windows. Finally, he opens the door to the back lounge, which currently serves less as a hangout and more as a practical storage area overflowing with luggage and gear. It's an honest, entertaining look at life behind the scenes, showing that even one of modern metalcore's biggest bands still calls a compact tour bus home while crossing the globe.
