Spiritbox is big right now – a Grammy nomination, hopping on Linkin Park‘s world tour, collaborating with Megan Thee Stallion, and over 8 million streams of their latest hit “Soft Spine”… if you’re searching for a similar sound, head to Mumbai. Apocryphal is an Indian metalcore five-piece with modern heaviness, clean / scream duality vocals, and huge chorus hooks.
Vocalist Dream Anatomy belts out melodically on “Spiders” – “you heal me with your light!” as Kiran Desai (Asylum, Still Echoes) growls out “but when the mirror shines, it’s always in absolution. I navigate my compass, but what do I tell the spiders?”
You can watch the video for the single now, shot by Aditya Ranga. Expect an EP releasing this year.
