Massive thank you to @kerrangmagazine_ the love on our new single Artificial Icons ☣️

Link in bio.

This release marks a completely new chapter for us as a band. After everything we’ve been through, we’ve had to rebuild, rethink, and come back stronger with a new line-up and a new mindset.
Artificial Icons is just the beginning of this new era for us.

New energy, new direction, same purpose.
Thank you to everyone who’s stuck with us.

We’re only getting started.

Defected. Always.

New year, same financially crippling addiction 😅 ➡️

Got a lot of things coming up this year, might do some posts idk💜

Some shots from the @rosenbridgeuk comeback show last week at @lionsdenmcr - Almost collapsed by the end with all the heat 🥵

Thank you to everyone who came down, we had a sick night and we’re looking forward to showing everyone what we’ve been busy working on over the last year 👀

Our wee Metal Festival made the local paper! And we couldn't have done it without you! 💜

We have so many thank you posts pending... but this one is for those who purchased tickets and supported this bonkers idea from the beginning.

This was the first music event our Organiser had ever organised. It was a huge gamble: would anyone actually turn up? What does a 'Metal Ceilidh' even look like? Would anyone be as excited about tea towels as Layla was about designing them? How should a drink cost, when folk could potentially pop out to their tent to drink as much as they liked? 🫠

You did turn up, 200 of you each night. You volunteered and worked more than your socks off, you took part in the ceilidh and quiz, you bopped about to songs you'd never heard, you took along your children and they joined their first ever mosh pits. You took part in Skye's first ever circle pit and wall of death (all thanks to the legendary @fromtyrannyofficial) and you attended the first official outdoor camping Metal Festival in the Highlands 🏕

We have learned a huge amount from this years event. Maybe we'll have a next years too (same time next year anyone!? 🤣). But we're going to take a wee break (in and amongst the day jobs) then start, next week, uploading all the lovely pics and videos we can to our website and socials 🫶

You all made Dùn Rùin what it was: thank you for all being UTTERLY incredible.

We hope the epic journey was worth it 💜

As we want to ensure everyone arrives super prepared - please make sure to visit the FAQ page, on our website, before you travel to this incredible place 😎

If you have any questions you can comment on here, drop us a DM, or send us an email via our contact form on our website 📨

It's just under 2 weeks until the Highlands' first ever Metalcore Festival - and we just can't wait to see you there! 👾

So on Saturday I’m going to ticking something off my bucket list 🫡

I’ve always wanted to play a show with a live orchestra, and on Saturday @rosenbridgeuk will be playing with @silverchambermusic at @manchesteracademy III

@syntaramusic will also be headlining and they’re epic 👌

If a metal show with an orchestra tickles your fancy, get involved 💜 📸 @jessrphoto_
