10 Up & Coming Metal Bands You Need To Hear
5. Rolo Tomassi
As one of the most experienced bands on this list, Rolo Tomassi are a force to be reckoned with and exceptional live performers. They have earned a phenomenal reputation as a sub-genre transcending group in recent years, mainly thanks to their enormous array of influences which become transparently clear through their music.
The Sheffield based alternate metal group's debut album came out in 2008. In total they now have six studio albums, an EP and one live session album. The 2008 debut, 'Hysterics', hardly made a splash in the UK scene upon its release, but Rolo Tomassi quickly began to build momentum and a name for themselves in the following months and years.
After their gradual crawl through the ranks of the underground for years, they suddenly clicked with a larger audience in 2018 with the release of their sixth studio album, 'Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It'. Although already established at this point, (especially in their native Yorkshire) this was the record that truly pushed the boundaries of their creativity and gifted them the biggest following they have enjoyed in their careers so far.
