PROFILER have released a visualiser for new single Constricted, taken from the deluxe edition of their debut album A Digital Nowhere that will be released on 17th February via SharpTone Records.
Commenting on the new single, frontman Mike Evans says, “Constricted is about feeling unworthy in relationships. It discusses personal experiences such as rejecting people in order to protect ourselves from being hurt. It’s themed around the quiet desperation of past trauma affecting our present moment reactions.”
Alongside the new single comes the news that PROFILER have expanded to a four piece with the addition of new members Jay Remnants (guitar) and Jacob Andrews (drums).
Commenting on their renewed lineup the band says: “Profiler has decided to expand into a four piece. The decision was not easy. Ultimately it needed to be made to allow Mike to express himself as a front man & to be able to write without limitations.”
Profiler is a Nu-Metal reawakening from the mind of vocalist and guitarist Mike Evans. This band is inspired by those who have incited change in genres, arts, and theories. It’s a weight of legacy that Profiler is comfortable shouldering, backed by SharpTone Records, its home since 2020.
After starting as a solo project in Bristol, UK, Mike stepped out from the studio and onto the stage, enlisting bassist/vocalist Joe Johnson and drummer Oscar Hocking. In early 2023, Oscar departed to be replaced by Brad Ratcliffe, cementing the line-up that would forge 2024’s debut album, A Digital Nowhere.
Profiler‘s nu-metal-grunge-alt-rock, call it what you want, is an abrasive distorted soundscape that reverently glances back to those genres’ heydays. Profiler is for anyone who misses or missed the contagious nineties Seattle grunge movement or the explosion of nu-metal that dominated the 00s and the genre-bending bands they made a path for.
