Editor's note

Vanna's Boston hardcore roots and atmospheric shifts

A Boston metalcore band that evolved from hardcore aggression to more atmospheric, personal territory across a string of albums.

For a sense of their range, try 'A Dead Language For A Dying Lady' and 'This Map Is Proof.' They give you both the heavy and the atmospheric sides of what Vanna did.

Vanna mattered because they bridged Boston's hardcore scene with something more textured. 'A Dead Language For A Dying Lady' shows how they could write heavy songs that still felt emotionally direct. Their 2014 album 'Trashmouth' became a breakout moment, pulling that balance into sharper focus.

They started in Boston in 2004 with a hardcore and metalcore sound, releasing 'Curses' in 2006. By 2010's 'And They All Sang for Lack of Ardor,' they were adding atmospheric touches, and later albums like 'Flower' and 'All Hell' kept that thread going while touring with bands like Killswitch Engage.

Archive material and source history

Vanna started in Boston in 2004, with Chris Mattern on vocals and guitar, Shawn Marquis on guitar, Evan Pharmakis on bass, and Brandon Davis on drums. Their early sound pulled from hardcore and metalcore, and they put out their first album, 'Curses,' in 2006. A couple years later, 'A New Hope' followed, keeping them in the conversation among heavier bands.

They put out a string of albums that shifted their style a bit. 'And They All Sang for Lack of Ardor' in 2010 brought in more atmospheric touches, and 'The Few and Far Between' in 2012 leaned into that while getting more personal lyrically. Songs like 'Digging' and 'A Dead Language For A Dying Lady' show that side of their work.

In 2014, 'Trashmouth' became their breakout record, with a more polished sound that still had the emotional weight they were known for. They kept going with albums like 'Flower' in 2016, which shares a title with one of their tracks, and 'All Hell' in 2019. They toured with bands like Killswitch Engage and All That Remains along the way.
