An Australian band that builds intricate songs from heavy riffs to atmospheric passages.
If you're new to them, start with Autumn or The City Has No Empathy (Your Sentimental Lie). Both give a good sense of how they build songs.
They've carved out a space in progressive metal that feels both ambitious and grounded. Songs like Colossus show how they can shift from crushing guitar work to quieter, more reflective moments without losing momentum. Their 2017 album In Contact brought them wider attention with tracks like Dragonfly and The City Has No Empathy (Your Sentimental Lie).
They formed in Brisbane around 2007 and put out a self-titled debut that same year. Moments From Ephemeral City followed in 2011, and In Contact arrived in 2017 before Rise Radiant in 2020. The lineup has stayed steady with Jim Grey on vocals and Sam Vallen and Zac Greensill on guitars.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
