Chelsea Grin formed in 2007 and found a fanbase almost immediately after uploading the tracks ìCrewcabangerî and ìLifelessî to Myspace. Following the release of a self-titled EP in 2008 they signed with Artery Records and issued their 2010 debut album Desolation of Eden to a No. 21 spot on the Billboard Heatseekers chart. Their sophomore album My Damnation was an even bigger success, reaching No. 6 on the Hard Rock chart and leading to tours with bands like Attila and After the Burial. The band was a touring juggernaut between 2012-2014, hitting Europe several times and also rocking stateside fans with two stints on the Vans Warped Tour. Their third album, 2014ís Ashes to Ashes, was another commercial success, reaching No. 4 on the Hard Rock chart and drawing them out on several headlining tours. Following the 2016 release of their decibel-shattering single ìSkin Deepî and news that they signed on with Rise Records, Chelsea Grin promised fans that their fourth album would be their ìmost aggressive release to dateî.
