UK metal stalwarts Sylosis have unexpectedly leveled fans with the surprise release of their new EP, The Path. The release arrives one year after the band's triumphant return to form with their lauded 2023 full length, A Sign of Things to Come.
The EP also precedes the start of the band's extensive touring slate set to begin later this month. Sharing the stage on their first US run in more than a decade opposite Fit For An Autopsy, the trek begins October 18th in Worcester, MA and stretches through the end of the year wrapping with a stretch of European co-headlining dates that closes on December 21st in Köln, Germany.
Properly introducing The Path EP, Sylosis have delivered a gripping new black and white clip directed by Daniel Gray which features powerful performance footage paired with menacing imagery. Also prominently featured is guest assist from Debbie Gough of emerging firebrand, Heriot.
Sylosis architect Josh Middleton spoke of the personnel statement package in the title track of the EP. “'The Path' is about my love and obsession for heavy music. It’s all I need. It’s never been a phase or something I’ll grow out of. I’m immersed in this culture and more than anything, I am still a rabid fan! I think previously writing a song about this kind of thing would have been a no-go for me. Maybe it could be perceived as corny or ‘out of character’ compared to some of the band's previous lyrics but this feels like a very important song to me.”
Middleton added how the supplement EP stemmed from a very productive period when. Sylosis was completing work on their A Sign of Things to Come full length. “When we were working on ASOTTC we amassed a lot of material. It was a very creative period and the songs that didn’t make it onto ASOTTC were by no means below standard - far from it! We’re extremely excited to share with you The Path EP. Some of our best material to date! We hope you enjoy it.”
