Virtuosic prog-rockers on tour

Prog-rock virtuosos Polyphia head out on tour across North America in spring, hot off the back of their most recent album Remember That You Will Die, their fourth record and the first to hit the US top-40 charts. Known for their blistering guitar-work and impressive live performances, the band are a musical force to witness in person.

Formed in 2010, Polyphia first came to prominence when their guitar cover versions became viral sensations on YouTube. Initially, their own original records had them working in metalcore genres, known as one of the prime names of the djent metal movement. Before long, though, a gradual musical evolution across their subsequent records saw them experimenting with math-rock, progressive rock and even trap and hip-hop influences, to create a sound that is uniquely their own.
