Bury Tomorrow, formed in 2006 in Southampton, England, swiftly made their mark in the melodic metalcore genre, self-releasing their debut EP, ‘The Sleep of the Innocents,’ in 2007. Their first studio album, ‘Portraits,’ was released in October 2009 via Basick Records in Britain, followed by releases in Japan and the United States in March 2010 through Artery Recordings. The band extensively toured across the United States, Europe, and Japan in 2010, supporting prominent acts such as Asking Alexandria, Of Mice & Men, Sleeping with Sirens, and Pierce the Veil, establishing a robust early career presence. Demonstrating resilience after challenges with their North American label, Bury Tomorrow released the single ‘Lionheart’ in September 2011.
A pivotal moment came in 2012 with their signing to Nuclear Blast and the release of their second album, ‘The Union of Crowns,’ which debuted at number 6 on the UK Rock & Metal Chart and peaked at number 25 on the US Top Heatseekers chart. Following Kristan Dawson’s addition as lead guitarist in 2013, their third album, ‘Runes’ (2014), reached number 1 on the official UK Rock chart and earned a ‘Best British Newcomer’ nomination at the Kerrang! Awards. Building on their success, Bury Tomorrow released their fourth album, ‘Earthbound,’ in 2016.
With their revitalized lineup, Bury Tomorrow released their highly anticipated seventh album, ‘The Seventh Sun,’ in 2023. Continuing their prolific output, 2024 saw the release of the single ‘Villain Arc,’ along with further singles ‘What If I Burn,’ ‘Let Go,’ ‘Waiting,’ and ‘Forever The Night,’ setting the stage for their upcoming eighth studio album. ‘Will You Haunt Me, with That Same Patience’ is scheduled for release on May 16, 2025, promising to further evolve their sound which consistently balances fierce melodic death metal-inspired riffs with anthemic choruses, influencing a new generation of metal bands.
