One year after their last EP, French heavy post-hardcore outfit Maps And Foils are back with an explosive new single “Abîme” (Abyss) available right now on YouTube.
Pushing the envelope toward darkest places, the first single off of their incoming second album resumes what’s to come: bouncy, aggressive, emotional music meant to be played loud. The chemistry between so many heavy subgenres, including chaotic hardcore, metalcore, post hardcore and post metal is better than ever on this one.

...For the record…
Maps And Foils is a Parisian metal / post-hardcore band active since 2016.
In love with the concept of breakup, the tightrope walker mixes metallic riffs and ethereal melodies to serve their disillusions. After a first album (‘# 1’) and a stunning digital single (“Fin Du Monde”), Maps And Foils returns in 2020 with ‘Les Anathèmes’, a punitive mathcore EP foreshadowing the storm to come.
Their new album called ‘Less Is Mort’ is the logical continuation of this evolution always on the verge of collapse, on the borders of metal and post-harcore.
