What do you get when you toss ferocious, hard-hitting metalcore in a blender with elements of hip-hop, grime, hardcore, and alternative metal — and then finish it off with a dash of introspection and brazen, no-holds-barred energy?
You get Borders, a young but driven collective hellbent on taking the heavy music community by storm with an onslaught of thought-provoking, sinister, and brutally aggressive tracks.
The band has signed to Arising Empire and shared the video for its debut single “Fade to Black.” Watch it here.
“‘Fade to Black’ is about how social media, or all of the media we soak in on the daily, is mind-numbing as a whole, and how we need to disengage in order to take back our minds before we become slaves to the system,” the band explains.
From taking the UK’s live music scene by storm supporting legendary deathcore act Martyr Defiled on their last run to their immersive and conceptual debut, 2019’s Purify, Borders are well on their way to making themselves a staple in the underground heavy music community — a goal sure to be achieved with their addition to Arising Empire’s ever-growing roster.
