Sable Hills // “For us it’s the beginning of the odyssey.”

雪 (Yuki) July 12, 2024 No Comments
Sable Hills is a five-member metalcore band based in Tokyo, which formed straight out of high school in 2015. The band released their first EP “RESURRECTION” in early 2016, following with the full album “EMBERS” in 2019 and “DUALITY” in 2022 – which also gave the group international recognition.

In this interview 雪 (Yuki) speaks with vocalist Takuya and guitarist Rict about their growth as musicians and their new found fame in Europe, but of course we can’t forget their new album "Odyssey" and their very own FRONTLINE FESTIVAL either!
