New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The devastating debut album from visceral Manchester three-piece LEECHED. A caustic dystopia of chaotic hardcore, Nasum-precision grind and a menacing atmospheric undercurrent akin to early Godflesh.
Barely a year after they formed, and with an incessantly intense EP - Nothing Will Grow From The Rotten Ground - already under their belts, LEECHED are taking a fast-paced swipe at the world around them. Bands sharing a distaste for the status quo, or a dissatisfaction for the world around them may not be something new, but few bands are doing it with the vitriol and vehemence that is offered up on You Took The Sun When You Left.
Taking influence from every dark and dingy corner of extreme music, LEECHED may be moving at break-neck speed, but they're a band who are quickly finding their feet - both in the studio and out on the road.
Currently finishing up a run of shows in mainland Europe, LEECHED return to the UK to play The
Black Heart in London in June, then a busy Summer touring with Employed To Serve and Full Of Hell in August.
