Brontide Release First New Music in 10 Years, “Mineral”

It has been ten years since Brontide released new music, and now, we are treated to the new track, “Mineral.” Picking up where they left off, the track is as emotive and dramatic as ever. Brontide says of the new song:

“‘Mineral’ feels new, while also paying tribute to the heavy music we loved back when we got together. Please listen to it loud and uninterrupted.”

Over their 9-year career, Brontide wrapped up several critically acclaimed releases and toured extensively, playing to captivated audiences around the UK, Europe and the US. Their release of Artery in 2014 saw them cement themselves as an influential band in the post-rock scene, along with widespread critical acclaim.

Their farewell show back in 2017 was the perfect celebration of the band’s achievements and saw members go on to incredible roles within music. Bassist Nathan Fairweather is a member of Rolo Tomassi, who has become arguably one of the most unique and influential heavy bands in the UK today. Drummer William Bowerman became a musical director and co-founder of WFB Live. This award-winning musical direction company has directed tours and performances for Post Malone, Dua Lipa, Elton John, Kylie Minogue and BLACKPINK, to name a few. Finally, guitarist Tim Hancock moved to Los Angeles, where he landed a role at Fender. His work for their learning platform, Fender Play, has helped millions of new players begin a musical journey of their own.

However, 7 years on, members William Bowerman, Nathan Fairweather and Tim Hancock are rejoining forces to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Artery and play their only UK show at this year’s ArctanGent Festival.

The record was re-pressed on a limited edition silver fade vinyl and released on 2nd August.
