And as featured on Billboard, HuffPost, Loudwire, BBC Radio, Kerrang! & Louder we are proud to announce the award-winning ESPRIT D'AIR are headlining Amplified 2022 at The Underworld bringing their Japanese electronic rock/metal led by vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and producer Kai.
Their sound is unique and fresh, bringing together hard-hitting aggression with melodic vocals and electronic synthesizers and in 2018, Esprit D'Air won 'Best Metal Album' at The Independent Music Awards in New York, for the release of their debut album, 'Constellations', judged by an esteemed panel featuring Slayer, Amy Lee (Evanescence), Sepultura & more!
With their second studio album 'Oceans' released last week (Starstorm Records) and having already achieved 2 million streams, it's a painstakingly crafted album that demands attention and involvement from the listener. It calls on your emotions and asks for your response to dive in "a really unique blend of djent, industrial, electro, goth, emo, metal and much more" - Ben Christo, The Sisters of Mercy
"Showcases how these guys have the ability to mix up so many flavors. It's proggy, cinematic, it's synthy, it's a bit Dragonforce-y at times, a bit metal-y, but all the time, it's bloody great." Alex Baker, Kerrang! Radio
