Far From Refuge

19 Dec 2024

19:00 - 23:30

Nightrain

Far From Refuge has been refining their unique blend of metalcore, melodic death metal, and progressive metal, seasoned with a healthy dose of djent and electronica, delivering captivating compositions that entwine intricate guitars with antagonistic vocals to underpin engrossing commentary from the human condition to tales of cosmic interlopers, and anything in between.

Drawing inspiration from artists such as Periphery, Linkin Park and TesseracT, among many others, the band are carving their own path in the modern metal scene. The fruits of their labour were first revealed to the world in 2018 in the form of 3 singles, along with a music video. In February of 2019, their eponymous debut EP was released to critical acclaim, followed by two more music videos and another single.

​

Far From Refuge won the prestigious NMG award for best artists in the Rock catageory in 2021, and again in 2023 in the Heavy category & again in September 2024.

​​

The EP False Flag was released in July of 2024, preceded by music video releases for the singles Ghost of Eros and Whitemane, to critical acclaim. The future looks bright for Far From Refuge, with an intense release pipeline of new songs & music videos, complemented by a schedule of concert slots where, as usual, their neck wrenchingly energetic, yet resoundingly melodious live performances will thrill audiences even farther away from their hometown of Cambridge.
