They built a formidable reputation on the live circuit, with sold-out shows across the UK, a headline performance on the BBC Introducing Stage at Reading and Leeds festival in 2021, along with tours with the likes of Albert Hammond Jr, Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, Razorlight, Boston Manor, Slothrust, and electrifying performances at Riot Fest (US) and SXSW (US).

They previously released the studio albums Rhinoceros (2019) and Euphoric (2021). However, it was their breakout mixtape, Over the Threshold (2023), which caught the attention of the wider world and Pendulum’s Gareth McGrillen, who sent them a message via their Instagram profile. When McGrillen invited the band to dinner and to visit Metropolis Studio in London, a friendship blossomed. He wrote two songs with the band that would appear on the new record.  

The Edge of the Abyss sees characters travelling between different dimensions, worlds with people who mysteriously resemble doubles of each one of us, like shadows that seem to stalk us but who in reality seek to communicate with us. Who are these beings? What do they want from us? How can we reach them?
