UK Progressive Metal Band Rolo Tomassi Release Video For "Tempest"; Select U.S. Dates Announced

UK progressive metal outfit Rolo Tomassi have unveiled a sparse yet striking new video for “Tempest,” a standout track taken from their recently released In The Echoes of All Dreams EP. The EP further expanded Rolo Tomassi’s boundary-pushing sound, weaving together elements of post-hardcore, metal, and ambient experimentation. 

In The Echoes of Dreams is now available on limited edition vinyl, offering fans a collectible physical edition. Get it HERE.

The band says, “We're pleased to share the video for ‘Tempest’ alongside the vinyl release of our EPIn The Echoes Of All Dreams. We can't wait to be back out playing some shows this summer and move forward with this new material, having enjoyed our 20th anniversary celebrations in 2025. Hope to see you at a show!"

The band is also playing a handful of dates in the U.S. this summer:

07/25 - Indianapolis, IN - POST Festival
07/26 - Chicago, IL - Beat Kitchen
07/28 - Pittsburgh, PA - Preserving Underground
07/31 - New York, NY - TV Eye

Since their 2005 inception in Sheffield, Rolo Tomassi have evolved from math-core prodigies into one of the UK’s most vital progressive forces. For over two decades, they have defied the rigid boundaries of heavy music, weaving a tapestry of sound that is as intellectually demanding as it is emotionally resonant. Prior to the recent EP InThe Echoes of All Dreams, the band released the full-length album, Where Myth Becomes Memory, which served as the final part in an unintended trilogy that began with 2015’s Grievances and continued with 2018’s Time Will Die And Love Will Bury It

DEFECTO Drop New Track "Tempest"

Third Studio Album 'Duality' out October 23rd via Black Lodge

DEFECTO are back with their third single "Tempest", taken from the band's upcoming album 'Duality', which drops on October 23rd via Black Lodge. Fans can listen to the new song as well as pre-order Duality at the link found here.

The sonic deluge of Tempest’s dark and pumping riffs is sure to pull you under. Tempest reflects on the ocean as a metaphor for life - for all of the beauty that it provides, there is this notion that we will never really truly be in control – all we can do is try to stay afloat.

The Danish metal act dives into the metal scene has been both successful and hectic. Just a year after the release of their debut, they were offered supporting slots for both Metallica and Rammstein. Defecto played numerous sold out shows, both domestic as well as around Europe. In addition, they also played some of Europe's biggest rock festivals. This gave the band a reputation of being a solid live act. The millions of streams that Defecto has reached in their career so far also show that there is something deeper and more meaningful in their music that the fans love about Defecto.

This fall sees the release of the bands' third album, titled 'Duality'. It is a combination of both light and dark, and the culmination of what Defecto stands for.
