SPLIT CHAIN
Birthed from the resurgent Emo and Grunge scenes, and reminiscent of the early 2000’s MTV aesthetic and sound, Split Chain present a refreshing balance of Shoegaze, Grunge and Nu-Metal to the UK’s ever growing alternative musical landscape. Delivering guitar immersed in chorus, whilst coherently synthesising the familiar grit of modern day hardcore, Split Chain further ground themselves within distorted, ethereal vocal hooks.
