ABOUT BY THE THOUSANDS

By the Thousands is a progressive metalcore band hailing from the Twin Cities, Minnesota. Their sound is a fusion of relentless groove, infectious breakdowns, melodic solos, and powerful harsh vocals. It is the perfect blend of the aggressive, hard-hitting technical metal that the Midwest is known for.

BTT released their self-titled debut EP in 2014, and followed it up with their 2015 full-length album, “Connect.” Soon they released their highly anticipated second full-length album “Visions of Inner Depth,” in 2018. During this time they landed opening slots on tours with bands such as Reflections and Oceano. Then at the cusp of the pandemic they dropped “Dead Matter” on Modern Empire Records, their most ambitious effort to date. Their forthcoming EP is a step in an even darker, much heavier direction. Their current sound is more cohesive than before.

By the Thousands has made a name for themselves by touring relentlessly and bringing their fans an intense, high-energy live performance that leaves them begging for more. They have developed a reputation as a must-see “live band” that will crush even the highest of expectations.

Their crisp album sound is flawlessly replicated and is complemented by a passionately driven, fierce performance.
