NORTHLANE

Sydney, Australia's Northlane has evolved into a vanguard of heavy music since their 2011 debut album, Discoveries, on UNFD. The band, currently featuring guitarists Jon Deiley and Josh Smith, drummer Nic Pettersen, and vocalist Marcus Bridge, earned multiple ARIA Awards for their progressive metalcore sound. Their music blends intricate, angular riffs with abrupt shifts in intensity, heavy distortion, and electronic textures, as heard on their recent Anemoia album, executive-produced by Jordan Fish. Expect a cathartic blend of trance-inspired euphoria and seismic breakdowns.
