For those that have been living under a rock, NOLA's Cane Hill had a pretty massive 2018. The year for them began with the January release of their sophomore LP Too Far Gone, which broke down existing notions of the band's sound, incorporating the swampy groove-metal aesthetic associated with their hometown as well as elements of industrial ambience and psychedelic weirdness. Almost a year later on the dot, they're set to release Kill the Sun, a semi-acoustic record that takes their music in a more subdued and introspective direction. Cane Hill have undertaken a real metamorphosis since their 2015 self-titled metalcore EP, and come to embody an iconoclastic spirit that we — and clearly, fans — truly appreciate.
