This Is The Six – 10th Anniversary While She Sleeps SKU: 19658829561 Barcode: 196588295614 29.00 £29.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Sony Released Date: 22nd September 2023 Buying Format: 1LP Coloured Vinyl Add to basket Reserve Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info As While She Sleeps prepare to play the biggest headline show of their career to date at Alexandra Palace on September 23rd, the Sheffield metalcore heroes now go back to where it all began with the news that their debut album ‘This Is The Six’ will receive its first ever vinyl release via Music For Nations on September 22nd. Originally released in 2012, ‘This Is The Six’ saw While She Sleeps begin to fulfil the immense potential that they had demonstrated with their previous EP ‘The North Stands For Nothing’. Infusing their visceral, ferocious metal and hardcore roots with an innate ability to appeal to a broader audience, the record set the band on the path to where they are today. They subsequently toured with the likes of Architects, Parkway Drive and Asking Alexandria, and won the prestigious Kerrang! Award for Best British Newcomer. Numerous tracks from the album remain fan favourites to this day, including ‘Seven Hills’, the title track, ’Our Courage, Our Cancer’ and ‘False Freedom’. The line-up that recorded ‘This Is The Six’ remains the same as it is today: Lawrence Taylor (vocals), Sean Long (guitar), Mat Welsh (guitar), Aaran McKenzie (bass) and Adam Savage (drums). To mark its 10th anniversary, While She Sleeps are announcing a special vinyl release of their much-celebrated album, ‘This Is The Six’. A critically acclaimed record in the band’s discography, the album also marks a significant milestone in their career. Originally releasing what is their second record in 2012, the album served as a defining moment for the band’s progress, with its 12 tracks propelling them to the forefront of the UK metalcore scene and garnering them widespread recognition at home and abroad for their raw energy and uncompromising sound. An album with a legacy and sonic integrity still firmly intact, it remains the white whale in fan’s vinyl collections, and this release marks the first time it will be pressed and available on vinyl to fill those gaps. An early album that points to both their early successes and their enduring impact as a band continually at the top table of the global metal scene, the band are still actively ploughing their own furrow and reaching new heights. A new record and worldwide touring is in the works, seeing the band headline venues such as London’s Alexandra Palace. Talking on the vinyl release Mat Welsh explains “Stepping into a ‘real’ studio to record your first full-length album is a feeling I’ll never forget. We’d spend the last few years in a van, after scraping together our first release in a barn, our original practice spot. Recorded & mixed by ourselves, so this was the biggest deal to us. The writing process was a blur, a mix of excitement and anxiety with how to follow up our first release ‘The North Stands For Nothing’, with the first full-length album, released on a major label & on a level we’d never experienced before. We met with Carl Bown (who we are still working with 12 years later) and Colin Richardson to make the record, they had a history of amazing albums and I remember being so excited to hear the stories they would tell. We threw everything we had into it, no boundaries. Writing like our lives depended on it, this was our real chance to make an album that could put us on the map for British metal, done our way. We’ve always been searching to create music that fills our own personal void, the music we’re searching for but can’t find. I feel like we achieved that, it sounded like the five of us & the collection of music that has made us who we are. It doesn’t sound like anyone else & it’s an essential part of why we’re still here today. After 12 years it’s really special for us to finally welcome it to the vinyl collection, an integral part of the Sleeps history.” Artist While She Sleeps Genre Metal / Classic Rock Label Sony Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Dead Behind the Eyes False Freedom Satisfied in Suffering Seven Hills Our Courage, Our Cancer This Is the Six The Chapel Be(lie)ve Until the Death Love at War The Plague of a New Age Reunite Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from While She Sleeps and more from Metal / Classic Rock View Product Quick View While She Sleeps Brainwashed Metal / Classic Rock | Music For Nations | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 24th May 2024 £25.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders While She Sleeps Brainwashed £25.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Music For Nations SKU: 19658829571 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 24th May 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View While She Sleeps SELF HELL Metal / Classic Rock | Spinefarm Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 29th March 2024 £23.00 Select options While She Sleeps SELF HELL £23.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Spinefarm Records Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 29th March 2024 Read More Select options View Product Quick View While She Sleeps SLEEPS SOCIETY (Special Edition) Metal / Classic Rock | Spinefarm Records | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 12th August 2022 £35.00 Select options While She Sleeps SLEEPS SOCIETY (Special Edition) £35.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Spinefarm Records Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 12th August 2022 Read More Select options View Product Quick View While She Sleeps Sleeps Society Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Spinefarm Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 16th April 2021 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders While She Sleeps Sleeps Society £22.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Spinefarm Records SKU: SPINE533131 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 16th April 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Black Sabbath Vol. 4 Super Deluxe Metal / Classic Rock | BMG | 5LP, Book, Box Set, CD Released 12th December 2020 £93.00 -
