As Everything Unfolds third full-length, ‘Did You Ask to be Set Free?’, grapples with the tightrope between a dream state and reality. A never-ending labyrinth of questions, not answers, is what shapes the crux of the record.
Having supported labelmates, Electric Callboy and genre-bending experts, Enter Shikari around the release of 2023’s ‘Ultraviolet’, tragedy then hit their camp in August 2024, when drummer Jamie Gowers passed away. Midway through the writing of this new album and with a dream support tour with Bury Tomorrow on the horizon, the quartet banded together to re-ignite the flames.
The album took two years to write & record and in their own words, “is the hardest record we will ever have to do”. Sonically, the album propels As Everything Unfolds out of the metalcore box into a band that have their own sound at the crossroads of the genre, serving as their strongest and most thrilling record to date. Out now, be sure to get ‘Did You Ask to be Set Free?’ in your ears and witness their first Bristol headline in THREE-years
