Bio
Idolvein is a multinational alternative metal band with its origins in the bustling rock scene of England’s East Midlands. Boasting an elegant fusion of relentless riffs, progressive sensibilities and irresistible melodies; they craft daring, vivid soundscapes with a vibrant palette. An adherence to the experimental sees them transcending the limits and conventions of genre, forming an identity they can solely claim as their own.
Forged in the fire of a previous project, the UK outfit consists of vocalist and guitarist Caelan Rivers, lead guitarist Jack Thorp, bassist Oli Brown and drummer Ryan Shores. Their influences are drawn from a rich musical tapestry: from modern rock acts such as Bring Me the Horizon, Loathe and Spiritbox, to progressive artists in Periphery and SikTh. Alongside these, they channel the textural qualities of a more eclectic range of sounds including Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead and The 1975, plus composers such as Steve Reich and Nils Frahm.
Championed by artists such as Michael Vampire of Vampires Everywhere! and BBC Radio hosts in Alyx Holcombe and Dean Jackson, Idolvein’s formation has garnered early acclaim from a diverse audience. The band’s upcoming single "Today's the Day I Die" is available on March 13th, ushering in the next chapter of Idolvein and building off the sonic imprint established on their debut EP "Where We Became Spirits".
Following 2025's co-headline tour with fellow up-and-comers HollowKin, the Nottingham outfit are set to release various new tracks for 2026 and visit all new cities on tour. As the times change and trends come and go, Idolvein trust in only one certainty; an oncoming wave of incendiary new material, sure to make their rise increasingly difficult to overlook.
