Militant vegan deathcore crew To The Grave are one of Australia’s most uncompromising bands. They have solidified their position as “one of the country's heaviest exports.” (Revolver) whilst crushing live audiences alongside Cattle Decapitation, Thy Art Is Murder, and Alpha Wolf. Throughout, the band have gained positive media attention, described as, “one of the most intense, enthralling bands the genre can offer” (Distorted Sound), and “home to one of the most comprehensive vocal performances in modern deathcore” (New Transcendence), with recent reviews adding that they “are destined for greatness. The future of Australian deathcore is here” (Wall of Sound).
Their latest album Director’s Cuts and the companion EP Offcuts are packed with ambition and conscience. To The Grave have never shied away from channeling the real horrors of animal cruelty and its impact into the violent, emotional intensity of their music. Songs such as ‘Cut Off The Head’ ‘Shock Tactics’ and ‘Deadskin Skimask’ perfectly conjure images of a world gone astray, exploring the band’s unwavering commitment to animal rights and environmental responsibility. They expose a societal and environmental hell on earth whilst pushing the boundaries of accessible extremity, full of barbed hooks, thick with atmosphere and drenched in groove.
Following sold-out Australian headline tours in 2022 and 2023, the band have joined the world stage, decimating audiences with their relentless live show on tours with the likes of Shadow Of Intent and Carnifex, and will be rounding out 2024 with a North American tour as the main support for Oceano and a European run on the Faces of Death Tour with Signs Of The Swarm, Veil Of Maya and Varials.
