In this episode of The Metal Cell Podcast, members of Following The Signs — Alan Jevens, Noel Crowley, Vincent Renoux and Chris Hanlon — join us in Metal Cell Studios to discuss their upcoming EP 'EVOLVE'. The Cork-based band dive into the writing and recording process behind the new release, the themes running through songs like “Call To Rise”, “Break The Frame”, and “Stuck In Place”, and how their sound has developed from early EPs through their album Conflictions to the next chapter of the band.

Alan, Noel, Vinnie and Chris also talk about songwriting dynamics within the band, recording at JSR Studios, and the momentum building from recent international performances in Poland as they prepare for the release of EVOLVE and their upcoming live shows.
Filmed on location at Metal Cell Studios, this conversation offers an honest look at a band continuing to refine their identity while pushing forward within Ireland’s modern heavy scene

If you’re into modern metal, metalcore, nu-metal influences, and emerging heavy bands, this episode gives a deep look into one of Ireland’s most exciting rising heavy acts.
