About Sylosis
Sylosis is a metal band from Reading, England, formed in 2000.
Sylosis formed in Reading in 2000 and released their debut album, Conclusion of an Age, in 2008 on Nuclear Blast. After vocalist Jamie Graham left, guitarist Josh Middleton took over lead vocals from 2011's Edge of the Earth onward, and the band followed it with Monolith and Dormant Heart.
Their records pair fast thrash picking with metalcore breakdowns and longer, progressive song structures. The band went quiet after 2015 while Middleton played guitar in Architects, then returned with Cycle of Suffering in 2020 and A Sign of Things to Come in 2023, with Middleton later leaving Architects to make Sylosis his main project again.
