Bury Tomorrow

Bury Tomorrow unleash an emotionally charged metal onslaught that fuses the plaintive edge of post-hardcore with metalcore’s crushing weight. The group balances atmospheric melodic layers against abrupt explosions of chugging intensity, deploying breakdowns to sustain a dark and brooding atmosphere. Since surfacing in 2007, the band achieved its first U.K. number-one record with the 2014 release Runes. Later albums such as Black Flame (2018) and The Seventh Sun (2023) maintained the same ferocious trajectory, unleashing expansive melodic metalcore with unrelenting force.

The Hampshire, England outfit was assembled in 2006 by Jason Cameron (guitars/vocals), Daniel Winter-Bates (vocals), Davyd Winter-Bates (bass), Mehdi Vismara (guitar), and Adam Jackson (drums). They quickly issued their self-released debut EP, The Sleep of the Innocents, in 2007. Two years later Basick Records put out the full-length debut Portraits, which was succeeded in 2010 by the EP On Waxed Wings. Nuclear Blast took notice and signed the group, resulting in the 2012 sophomore album The Union of Crowns. Founding guitarist Mehdi Vismara exited in 2013, replaced by Kristan Daweson, whose first contribution appeared on Runes; that record entered the U.K. Official Rock chart at number one and reached number 16 on the U.S. Heatseekers chart.

Earthbound, the band’s fourth studio album, landed in 2016 and continued their chart success. Black Flame followed in 2018 via Music for Nations. Returning to the studio in 2019 with previous producer Dan Weller, Bury Tomorrow prepared their sixth long-player; after several advance singles, Cannibal emerged in early 2020. Ahead of their seventh album the lineup expanded with rhythm guitarist Ed Hartwell and keyboardist/clean vocalist Tom Prendergast. The Seventh Sun arrived in 2023, presenting a powerful collection driven by enormous riffs and anthemic clean/scream choruses.
