Polaris The Mortal Coil

Clear w/Blue Splatter Vinyl. Polaris is a five-piece metalcore band from Sydney, Australia. One of 2017's most anticipated heavy releases, their full-length debut album, The Mortal Coil was recorded in the band's self-made studio in Mollymook, NSW, where they shipped American tandem, Carson Slovak and Grant MacFarland of Atrium Audio to oversee production. It stunned audiences and critics alike, landing at No. 6 on the ARIA Album Charts and No. 1 on the Independent Albums Chart, scoring a Triple J Feature Album - surpassing the already high expectations around the band set by 2016's EP, The Guilt & The Grief. "The Mortal Coil plays a nice hybrid game between melodic metalcore and progressive metalcore - think Architects and August Burns Red by way of Underoath and Bring Me The Horizon. Riffs are big, meaty, and often mathy, except when they're not. Songs like "Dusk To Day" emphasize restraint and melody until a massive climax" (New Noise).
