Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut full-length from the Liverpool quintet is an ambitious concept album that established them as a dark and formidable new force in heavy music. 'The Cold Sun' weaves a bleak narrative through a dense and aggressive blend of technical djent, punishing metalcore, and vast, atmospheric post-metal soundscapes. The album's dissonant, angular, and passionate delivery showcased the band's unique and forward-thinking vision from their very beginning.
