Loathe isn’t just another heavy band—they’re sonic architects, bending metal, shoegaze, and post-hardcore into something both crushing and hypnotic. Hailing from Liverpool, the UK outfit made their mark with 2020’s I Let It In and It Took Everything, an album that seamlessly shifts between suffocating brutality and ethereal beauty, earning comparisons to Deftones, Meshuggah, and even My Bloody Valentine. But Loathe refuses to be boxed in. 2021’s The Things They Believe took an ambient, cinematic turn, proving their ambition goes beyond breakdowns and guttural screams. With their genre-blurring vision and emotionally charged atmosphere, Loathe isn’t following metal’s rules—they’re rewriting them, one haunting riff at a time.
