Pleiades Return With Brand New Single 'Siberian'

 

Manchester based Post Hardcore outfit Pleiades are today proud to share their brand new single ‘Siberian’. Encouraging themselves to be seen as an anomaly of the alternative world, Pleiades have spent the time since their formation cultivating an artistic, heavy sound that leaves them unbound by categorisation. Inspired by stories of empathy and human nature, they aim to be the sculptors of a bold new sonic landscape.



'Siberian', produced by Joe Clayton (Pijn, Leeched) reflects the story of Alexander I, a Russian emperor in the 1800s alleged to have faked his own death to live a life of isolation and solitude.



“...after a lot of reading during 2020 I came across the story of Alexander I of Russia and a rumor that he faked his own death to live as a hermit. It served as a vehicle for my narrative of giving up everything in search of solitude and that no amount of wealth was enough. Whether it was because of the pressure of titles or the guilt of living in such privilege while others suffer we’ll never know. We’ll never be sure it's even true but itself serves as a strong metaphor for a desire for anonymity”. - Vocalist, Andrew Calderbank.

Pleiades earned critical acclaim with the release of their second EP ‘All At Your Mercy’ defying the concept of convention and all expectations of genre, with their organic and strikingly candid approach to their craft leading Kerrang! to dub them a “vital new voice in UK rock”. The band have since gone on to share stages with Pagan, Blanket, Hawthorne Heights, As Everything Unfolds and more, affirming a status worthy of a place among the highest ranks of the global scene.
