Landmvrks

Landmvrks formed in Marseille in 2014, initially under the name Coldsight and led by guitarist-turned-vocalist Florent Salfati and drummer Nicolas Soriano. Once Salfati settled into the frontman role, guitarist Nicolas Exposito joined and the group renamed itself Landmarks, restyling the name as Landmvrks the following year.

Their music sets clean, high-reaching choruses against low-tuned riffing and breakdowns, with vocals moving between melodic singing, screaming and passages closer to rap phrasing. Most lyrics are in English, though French surfaces in places. Reviewers have likened Salfati's screams to Andrew Neufeld of Comeback Kid and Bryan Garris of Knocked Loose, and on later records to Chester Bennington of Linkin Park.

The band self-produced its debut album, Hollow, in 2016, then signed to the German label Arising Empire and released Fantasy in 2018. Drummer Nicolas Soriano left the following year and was replaced by Kévin D'Agostino. Third album Lost in the Waves followed in 2021, reaching number 17 on the German charts, with a 2022 deluxe edition adding guest duets from other hardcore and metalcore vocalists. A fourth album, The Darkest Place I've Ever Been, arrived in 2025.

The band has built its audience largely outside France as well as at home, touring Europe with Any Given Day, playing shows in Japan opening for Polaris, and crossing the United States alongside Miss May I. Their reputation rests heavily on a physical live show, and on songs that pair the heaviest sections with hooks meant to be sung back.
