The Sorrow was an Austrian melodic metalcore band known for their intense fusion of aggressive riffs, deep growls, and melodic interludes. The ensemble came together in 2005 in Voralberg, where their raw energy and passion for the genre resonated with fans of metalcore, helping them to quickly make a name for themselves within the European metal scene.

The band's impressive discography includes the hard-hitting and reflective "Misery Escape" (2012), which is their most recent studio album and showcases their growth in musicianship and lyrical depth. Their self-titled release, "The Sorrow" (2010), further demonstrates their ability to blend melody with metalcore's traditional heaviness. With "Origin of the Storm" (2009) and their debut "Blessings from a Blackened Sky" (2007), The Sorrow established their presence with a sound characterized by tight musicianship and emotive screams set against a backdrop of crushing riffs and rhythmic precision. Despite disbanding in 2016, The Sorrow left a lasting impact on the metalcore scene with their vivid storytelling and engaging sonic identity.
