Artist Spotlight: Set Your Sails

Another edition of Artist Spotlight is ready to go! Today, we head across the pond to Portsmouth, United Kingdom and seek out the hardcore leaning sounds of Set Your Sails. The band consists of Sean Kelly, Carl Michie, Harry Fielder, Harvey Ware, and Nick Bowen. The band has an ear-piercing, gut wrenching sound similar to their fellow countrymen Asking Alexandria and our Underoath with their own unique and cutting edge musical blueprint to fall upon. Some of you guys may not know this, but I happen to enjoy some metalcore music, most particularly Pierce the Veil and some of the aforementioned acts mentioned because it has a certain dexterity and edge to it that balances out the hardcore screaming that it's often associated with melodic interludes interspersed in between to present a full bodied and rich sound that brings together a new element of music that is slowly growing by the numbers. A neat, undiscovered act from England that has plenty of promise moving forward.

For more info and all the latest on Set Your Sails, head on over to their Facebook page located right here and find out everything that there is to know about the group. The fellas can be followed on Twitter from over here and see if they plan on stopping by the States sometime soon with a concert appearance. Their Bandcamp site is at this spot here and contains all of their music, including their latest track "Connect:Rebuild".
