UNE MISÈRE formed in April 2016 by a collective of 6 artists who came together to play really heavy music Each of the members were involved with various hardcore bands until they joined forces to write music inspired by Iceland's darkest and most bleak aspects. With only a year under their belt, the band took 2017 by storm playing several shows including winning a Wacken Metal Battle in their hometown which later turned into a performance at the re-known festival. It also marked the release of their first mix-tape entitled ,010717, which was also served as the release date. They continued to make waves landing a slot at Iceland's own Eistnaflug. Throughout the festival they played 3 separate performances, Most notable was when they played at an abandoned pizza parlor where their live performance cemented their name in Iceland's underground hardcore metal scene. Fast forward to 2018 where the band continue making their rounds, performing their memorable live shows at Roadburn Festival, and Bloodshed Fest as well as a tour in Europe.
UNE MISÈRE are going full steam into 2019 with performances at Summer Breeze, Metal Days as well as several festivals that have yet to be announced.. The explosive collective is ready to show the world how their sound pushes sonic boundaries.
