Harms Way is a band that emerged from the hardcore punk scene with a distinctive twist, where they seamlessly integrate elements of metal, industrial, and even electronic music. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, the band was formed in the mid-2000s and quickly became known for their aggressive sound and visceral live performances. The group's evolution has seen them incorporate heavier and more diverse influences into their music, allowing them to stand out among their peers and capture the attention of a broad audience.

By the time they released their more recent works like the formidable "Posthuman" in 2018 and followed with the remix EP "PSTHMN", Harms Way had firmly established their penchant for exploring the darker, more oppressive corners of sonic expression. Their sound continues to be characterized by punishing riffs, relentless percussion, and a vocal delivery that is both ferocious and eerily melodic, as heard in tracks such as "Become a Machine" and "Human Carrying Capacity." With each new release, from the haunting collaboration in "Undertow (feat. King Woman)" to the brutally introspective "Call My Name," Harms Way pushes the envelope of heavy music, challenging listeners with their unyielding exploration of humanity's intersection with a technologically advanced society.
