UK experimental metal outfit Under sit down with Northwest Connection for a rare, in‑depth conversation about the long road to their upcoming album — a project shaped by years of writing, reworking, and rebuilding. Known for their abrasive, avant‑garde approach to heavy music, the trio discuss the creative dead ends, breakthroughs, and evolving philosophies that pushed their sound further into the fringes of the UK underground metal scene. This episode offers a clear look at how Under construct their chaotic, genre‑defying world, making it essential listening for fans of experimental metal, noise rock, mathcore, and boundary‑pushing artistry.

You’ve seen their work on releases from Coldbones, Blanket, Din of Celestial Birds, Blanket, A Burial at Sea, and a growing list of post‑rock and metal artists who trust them to define the first impression of their sound. Their covers don’t just decorate a record — they build the world around it.
