Known for their intense and powerful sound, SUMAC has quickly gained a reputation as one of the most influential bands in the metal genre.

Inspired by bands such as *ISIS*, *Zozobra*, and *Old Man Gloom*, SUMAC's music combines elements of doom, sludge, and post-metal to create a truly immersive listening experience. Their heavy riffs, complex song structures, and atmospheric soundscapes captivate audiences around the world.

Collaborating with talented performers like *Helms Alee* and *Conjurer*, they constantly evolve their sound while staying true to their artistic vision.

Following their acclaimed album What One Becomes earlier this year, Sumac release Before You I Appear, a set of What One Becomes remixes featuring tracks reconfigured by the likes of Samuel Kerridge, Bleed Turquoise (aka James Ginzburg of Emptyset), Kevin Drumm and Japan’s Endon. The results range from impossibly dense and perpetually ascending psych noise blowouts to subdued passages of subtly curdled drones punctuated by disembodied vocal excretions. In composing music, Sumac opt for a process of simultaneous construction and dismantlement. Longform rock-based structures are distended to the point of erosion, reiterated in continually alternating sequences and plied with extra musical implements of chaos and tonal abstraction. Through the practice of psychophysical exertion and sensorial disorientation the music becomes a tangible projection of the players underlying emotions and spirit. Though stylistically differentiated from the source material, the tracks on Before You I Appear possess a parallel predilection for combining combustible atmospherics and emotionally penetrative musical manoeuvres. LP pressed on virgin vinyl and includes a digital download code.
