The Queens, NY-based quintet s debut album, To Whom It May Concern, finds a young band operating at the peak of their powers. Lead by Jordan Panesso s authoritative vocals, Sylar deliver a metallic hardcore onslaught that pulsates with electro flourishes and the kinds of breakdowns that will have pit dwellers foaming at the mouth. After bringing their frenetic live show to audiences throughout the country, sharing the bills with the likes of Born of Osiris, A Skylit Drive and label mates Sworn In, Sylar went into the studio with producer Caleb Shomo (Attack Attack!) and the result was Deadbolt, an EP that helped cement their band to watch status. Sylar headed to Columbus, Ohio to start work with Shomo on To Whom It May Concern. Recorded over the span of 28 days in September of 2013, the 12-track album balances the bite of metallic hardcore and hypnotic pull of electro with arena-ready hooks that sink into you from the first spin.
