Ether

A dynamic, musically diverse progressive/metalcore band from Liverpool, with members from across the UK. Their new EP and PV are currently in production! 


Shatter the Skies began in 2010 when Dan Goss (vocals), Oli Trouille (guitar), Stan McDonald (bass) and Matt Franks (drums) met through Liverpool University Band Society. Having come from Ireland, Leeds, Dudley and Hell, respectively, the quartet were joined by Cathal Ryan (guitar), one of Dan's schoolfriends and fellow Irish metalhead (they exist). 

Bandsoc provided a great atmosphere for the band to develop their stage show and material, and they began to reach outside of its comforting embrace, to gig around Liverpool, in venues such as the Cavern Club, and personal favourite, Baa Bar. 

They were set back in the summer of 2011 when Cathal left the band, and began to play as a four-piece. They recorded a four-track EP, entitled "Tears Through Blinded Eyes", in the summer of 2012, then began a one-year hiatus when Oli went abroad to study languages and Spanish women. 

When Oli returned in glory in 2013, the band played at the O2 Academy in Liverpool, headlined one-day-festival Live at the Lido in Yorkshire and began to play around the Liverpool again, racking up gigs with various promoters and venues. 

Recently, the band have shaken up their members by evolving Stan from bassist to guitarist and taking on new bassist Leandro Cuzzocrea, returning to their roots as a five-piece act. 

They are currently looking for gig opportunities anywhere in the UK, and are currently working on a new EP and first PV. 

Exciting times. 


"... a lot of diverse mastery and baddassery. Just great to hear something a little more different from the norm!" 
- Pagan Tordengrav, Pagan Hel Reviews 

"In all, it’s a bit of a mix, but one that stands more chance of appealing to multiple audiences than alienating them."
