Biography
Californian black metal outfit Deafheaven were formed in San Francisco in 2010. The band started out as a duo, a project started by singer George Clarke and guitarist Kerry McCoy. After signing a deal with Deathwish Inc the band released their debut album 'Roads to Judah' in 2011. The album contained four lengthy tracks and began to push boundaries within the black metal genre combining the usual grunts and shrieks with thoughtful melodies.
Having established themselves as a band who had successfully combined shoegazing with black metal they released their follow-up album 'Sunbather' in 2013. The seven-track album was met with widespread critical acclaim and entered the Hard Rock Album Chart at number ten with a number of critics listing it as one of the best albums of 2013. Although Deafheaven's record sales were relatively modest compared to other more popular genres, within the world of black metal they are seen as one of the most successful and creative bands on the scene and their albums receive consistently good reviews in the music press.
