Victory Records, in Chicago, IL (USA), welcomes dynamic South Wales, UK Metal/Hardcore outfit CONTINENTS, to its roster. Watch the full announcement video below. Kerrang magazine describes CONTINENTS sound as, “Energy-fueled epic-core with lots of aggression, a healthy blend of raw shouts and low end growls and foot stomping hooks.” Their music and intense stage presence has separated them from the ever-growing UK Metal/Hardcore scene.
“We’ve always tried to put our own passion for our music before external influence, the most important thing for us is that we enjoy the music we play, and if other people enjoy it too then that’s awesome,” said Vocalist, Philip Cross. “We like to mix elements of our favorite styles and influences, and then put our own perspective on things to see where it takes us.”
