Reading, Berkshire-based metal band Sylosis combines multiple heavy metal subgenres with a keen ear for melody and epic song structures. Emerging in the mid-aughts, the band's 2008 full-length debut, Conclusion of an Age, was rooted in classic Bay Area thrash. Progressive and melodic death metal elements rose to the fore on the 2012 concept album Monolith, a style the band continued to explore on Dormant Heart (2015), A Sign of Things to Come (2023), and The Path EP (2024).
