Vanitas are rising fast in the UK heavy scene, bringing their unique blend of progressive metal and djent with orchestral elements that wouldn’t sound out of place in a Final Fantasy soundtrack; creating what they’ve coined ‘cinematic djent’. The Birmingham 5-piece have wasted no time establishing themselves in the UK music scene since their debut in 2022 with dynamic live performances supporting acts in the past such as: Monuments, Voyager, Galactic Empire & Destrage in their short time as a band so far.
In 2024, Vanitas return mature and dangerous, delivering their heaviest release yet. Their sophomore EP ‘Chaos Theory’ released August 2nd represents a savage expression of rage and desperation; born from a time of turmoil and wearing its scars proudly. Since its release the EP has reached over 47K streams on Spotify, with a combined 80K+ views on their official music videos and multiple positive reviews. Vanitas debuted “Chaos Theory” live with a sold-out hometown show at The Flapper, Birmingham and their debut UK tour including an appearance at 2023’s UK best micro-festival winners Burn it Down Festival alongside the likes of Wargasm, Lake Malice, Creeper, Caskets & more.
Vanitas now round-off a successful year of releases with their newest single Wait & See; an epic anthem, exploring the duality of excitement and anxiety of trusting an unknown future.
