Deafheaven is an American post-metal band that was formed in 2010. Originally based in San Francisco, the group started as a two-piece with singer George Clarke and guitarist Kerry McCoy. Together, they recorded and self-released a demo album which gained attention. As their popularity grew, Deafheaven expanded by recruiting three new members and embarked on numerous tours.

Deathwish is an American record label that was formed in 2001 by Jacob Bannon and Tre McCarthy. Originally registered under the name Malfunction Records, the company later changed its name to Deathwish. With a focus on hardcore punk and heavy metal music, Deathwish has become a prominent force in the music industry. Known for their dedication to quality and authenticity, Deathwish continues to release groundbreaking albums from both established and emerging artists.
Since its inception, Deathwish has been at the forefront of the underground music scene, consistently pushing boundaries and challenging conventions. With a roster that includes influential bands such as Converge, Code Orange, and Deafheaven, Deathwish has earned a reputation for releasing innovative and genre-defying music.
As an independent label, Deathwish remains committed to supporting artists who are passionate about their craft. By providing them with creative freedom and extensive resources, Deathwish allows musicians to fully express themselves through their art. Whether you're a fan of aggressive punk or atmospheric black metal, Deathwish offers a diverse range of releases that cater to all musical tastes.

"Sunbather" is the highly anticipated new album from Deafheaven. Recorded and engineered by Jack Shirley (Funeral Diner, Comadre) and designed by Nick Steinhardt (Touche Amore) With opener "Dream house" George Clarke's tortured vocals familiarly intertwine with Kerry McCoy's hypnotic guitar work before crashing into a wash of post-everything melody. This leads to the moving instrumental "Irresistible" a track that carries a twisted indie-like sensibility buried beneath glittery layers of guitar and piano. Deafheaven explore sonic peaks and valleys created by superb percussionist Daniel Tracy (new to the band for this recording). His inclusion brings new dynamics to light as an urgent pulse to the swirling musical chaos. Pushing bleak epic "Vertigo" and the dark emotional closer "The Pecan Tree" to new, awe-inducing heights. Without question "Sunbather" is Deafheaven at the peak of their creative strength and vision of their young existence. A masterfully crafted work of art..
