News : Perth metallers Cursed Earth sign to UNFD
Perth metal band Cursed Earth have today announced their partnership with UNFD worldwide. Cursed Earth are a young and talented group of metal head, and have been on track to their raise to fame since 2013. This new signing will see the world introduced to the band and their new EP, ‘Cycles of Grief Volume 1: Growth’ our August 4th via UNFD.
Cycles of Grief Volume 1: Growth is an unflinching and graphic depiction of trauma that breaches the boundaries of generation, country, class or circumstance. The EP covers themes of isolation and brutality from the point of view of characters caught up in and torn apart by their environment and the actions of those responsible for shaping their lives.
“The story of Cycles of Grief documents the collision of nature and nurture” says guitarist Kieran Molloy. “It’s an unprejudiced look into the intergenerational nature of coldness, addiction and violence.”
Cursed Earth, comprising vocalist Jazmine Luders, guitarists Kieran Molloy and Paul Cottrell, bassist Robert Owens and drummer Sam Forward, formed in Perth in 2013. Through EP Vae Mortis and a split with Burning Season (collected on Enslaved By The Insignificant, released worldwide by Death’s Grip / Holy Roar) they established themselves as unflinching documenters of the darkest corners of human nature.
Cycles of Grief Volume 1: Growth is available for preorder on 24Hundred and iTunes. Cursed Earth are currently on their headline tour of Australia. They will also hit the road with Thy Art is Murder in July.
Cursed Earth will embark on a massive national tour, supporting the new EP. Catch them on the following tour dates with special guests Statues.
