True Heaviness Is Time is here. The second EP from Melbourne blackened post-metalcore band RUN sees the vision of vocalist Lochlan Watt standing fully formed.
True Heaviness Is Time is a dynamic and powerful tour de force that grips as it slams from peak to peak, with barely a moment to breathe between explosions of lush melody and deeply crushing riffs. With an outlook forged through the fires of Watt’s personal triumph over brain cancer, True Heaviness Is Time tackles the pain of existence with an aural violence powered by positivity.
Featuring guest vocals from Joel Birch of The Amity Affliction, John Floreani of Trophy Eyes, and Sophie Jest of R.U.B, there’s a multitude of diverse sounds on display within the band’s own unique take on heavy music – a classic 2000s metalcore sound infused with modern post-black metal.
Self-produced and engineered by guitarist Lewis Noke-Edwards, the release is polished off with a stunning mix from Forrester Savell (Karnivool, Animals As Leaders) and insane sci-fi-inspired art direction by Patrick Galvin (Parkway Drive, Northlane).
An incredibly limited vinyl run of True Heaviness Is Time, also featuring the 2020 debut EP For You Will Never Find Peace Within Your Quiet as the B-side, will be available for pre-order on June 7 through Stiff Cut Records.
