Kscope

Kscope is a London-based label specializing in the progressive genre of current music. Launched in 2008, it is a division of Snapper Music, one of the industry's most respected and influential independent labels.

With an impressive roster of talented artists, Kscope has become synonymous with innovative and boundary-pushing music. The label prides itself on discovering and nurturing unique talents who are pushing the boundaries of what is possible within their respective genres.

From *Steven Wilson* to *Anathema*, *TesseracT* to *The Pineapple Thief*, Kscope represents some of the most exciting and critically acclaimed acts in contemporary music. With a focus on quality over quantity, each release from Kscope is carefully curated to ensure that it meets the high standards set by the label.

Tesseract is a British Djent metal band that was formed in 2007. Known for their unique sound and technical proficiency, they have gained a dedicated following in the progressive metal scene.

Inspired by bands such as *Periphery*, *Textures*, and *SikTh*, Tesseract has carved out their own distinct style characterized by intricate guitar riffs, complex rhythms, and soaring melodies. Their music seamlessly blends heavy aggression with atmospheric beauty, creating an immersive sonic experience.

With albums like "One" and "Altered State," Tesseract has proven themselves to be masters of their craft. They have shared stages with notable acts like *Animals As Leaders* and *Protest The Hero*, further solidifying their status as one of the leading forces in modern progressive metal.

Originally formed as a studio project by guitarist Acle Kahney, TesseracT are a band full of melody, dynamics and groove, they sit outside the bounds of any genre specificity to truly create a sound that has always been pioneering and creative; an unstoppable force of off-kilter riffs, soaring melodies and disorientating atmospherics.

Having found a new creative energy after reuniting with original singer Dan Tompkins, the band's output changed in 2015 with the opus Polaris; an undoubted evolution from Altered State, featuring skilful experimentation with sounds and tones, plus a deeper exploration of the core attributes that define TesseracT's trademark sound. This critically acclaimed, landmark album from the band is available on Digipack CD Edition via Kscope.
