Editor's note

Cadmium's heavy, moody rock from Los Angeles

A band whose atmospheric sound and raw live energy built a following, then faced a difficult public moment.

For their sound, try "No Friends (feat. Rosendale)." For where things got heavier, "I Gave It All (feat. Harley Bird)" holds up.

Their 2019 single "No Friends (feat. Rosendale)" caught people with its layered arrangement and lyrics about isolation. That mood carried into tracks like "I Gave It All (feat. Harley Bird)" and their 2020 debut album "The Weight of the World." The music feels direct, even when the band's story got complicated.

Cadmium formed in Los Angeles around 2017, playing heavy metal and alternative rock at raw live shows. After "No Friends" brought wider attention in 2019, they released "The Weight of the World" and EPs like "Echoes of the Void." A break followed domestic abuse allegations against Ethan Kath, before they started playing again.

Archive material and source history

Cadmium formed in Los Angeles around 2017, with Ethan Kath on vocals and guitar, Leon Dechard on drums, and Will Toledo on bass. Their early sound pulled from heavy metal and alternative rock, and they built a following with live shows that felt raw and direct.

In 2019, the single "No Friends (feat. Rosendale)" got them wider attention. The song's moody, layered arrangement and lyrics about isolation connected with listeners. They followed it with a debut album called "The Weight of the World" in 2020, and later put out EPs like "Echoes of the Void." Other tracks like "I Gave It All (feat. Harley Bird)" and "Ghost" kept to that atmospheric, introspective style.

Around that time, Ethan Kath faced domestic abuse allegations from a former partner. The band canceled some shows and took a break for a while. They eventually started playing again, though the situation brought more scrutiny to their work.
