Sannhet

Sannhet is a Brooklyn-based instrumental trio crafting atmospheric post-metal that swirls together cinematic soundscapes, blackened textures, and post-rock grandeur. Formed in 2010, the band (John Refano on guitar, AJ Annunziata on bass, and Christopher Todd on drums) became known for their visceral live shows, often pairing their music with intense visual projections. Their sound evolved from chaotic sludge roots into more nuanced territory, blending melancholic melodies with pummeling rhythms across albums like *Known Flood* (2013) and *Revisionist* (2015).

The band’s 2017 album *So Numb* saw them refining their approach with tighter songwriting and clearer production while maintaining their signature heaviness. Tracks like “Salts” and “Young Death” showcase their ability to balance beauty and abrasion, landing them tours with acts like Deafheaven. Though they’ve been quiet since their 2021 single “Short Life,” Sannhet remains a cult favorite for fans seeking metal that prioritizes mood over vocals and tradition.
