Metal is more than just music, it's lifestyle. And that's something Employed to Serve truly believe in after more than a decade in the game, rising from road warrior martyrs touring squats across Europe to stake their claim as arena-ready contenders following a huge tour with Gojira. Practicing what they preach, Employed to Serve have alchemized ingredients from across the metal universe and radically raised the bar with their upcoming album Fallen Star. It's a record of dizzying diversity, but also one which is utterly uncompromising. While heavy metal unity is an empowering philosophy, Employed to Serve are also passionate about supporting the community in a practical sense too. This is best represented by the rise of their own Church Road Records, a homespun DIY operation which became a much bigger concern following Holy Roar's implosion. Now it's a safe space for artists right across the sonic spectrum, including their friends Svalbard, whose vocalist Serena Cherry features on the new album's "Last Laugh".
