Formed in 2000, LIQUID SKY first gained attention with their self-released EPs “Adrenochrome” (2001) and “Nightfall” (2003) and album “Bloodline” (2004). Displaying a completely new approach to the ‘female vocals in metal’ genre and featuring songs that showcased a never-before-heard mix of metal ferocity and beautiful melody, these releases helped the band develop and solidify a reputation as Britain’s best-kept metal secret.
In recent years, the band have mixed regular support slots with bands such as Skyclad, Skindred, Xandria and Octavia Sperati with incendiary headlining shows, winning them a loyal and constantly expanding army of fans. A blistering performance at the 2004 Bloodstock Festival (alongside such luminaries as Children of Bodom, Threshold, Evergrey, Gamma Ray and Sonata Arctica) was a particular highlight. The band also undertook a co-headlining tour of the UK in 2006 with American band Nicodemus, exposing a whole new group of fans to the LIQUID SKY sound.
Building on the success of their previous releases and a wave of popular support, 2008 saw the band unleash a brand new album entitled “Identity” - their first on the INSOMNIA MEDIA label. Mixed and mastered by Threshold’s Karl Groom, the album shows all of the trademarks of great metal anthems – massive riffs, instantly memorable melodies and emotive solos, all blending together to create a heavy and dynamic metal sound which is also very accessible.
The album was released to universal acclaim and the band undertook two headlining UK tours in 2008, made blistering appearances at Rock Of Ages Festival and Metieval Festival in the summer of 2008, and capped an excellent year with a triumphant return to Bloodstock, headlining the Lava Stage at BOA 2008.
The band are currently writing and demoing new material for the as-yet-untitled follow-up album, which will be released early in 2010. They will be playing select shows throughout the year, including festival appearances in the summer.
LIQUID SKY are at the cutting-edge of modern rock and metal and embody the new breed of metal musicians; intense, powerful and ready to make music you'll always remember.
