Rolo Tomassi
Rolo Tomassi is a British experimental rock band formed in Sheffield in 2005.[1][2] The group derives its name from a line of dialogue in the film L.A. Confidential.[1] Founded by siblings Eva Korman (née Spence) (vocals) and James Spence (keyboards and vocals), the band is renowned for its genre-defying sound that fuses mathcore, post-hardcore, progressive rock, and noise elements into dynamic, high-energy compositions.[1][3][4] With current members including Chris Cayford (guitar), Nathan Fairweather (bass), and Al Pott (drums), Rolo Tomassi has evolved from underground mathcore roots to crafting expansive, atmospheric works while maintaining an unrelenting intensity.[5][6] The band's discography spans six studio albums, beginning with Hysterics (2008) and their most recent Where Myth Becomes Memory (2022), which has been praised as a genre-transcending masterpiece, along with the EP In the Echoes of All Dreams (2025).[7][4][8] Throughout their two-decade career, Rolo Tomassi has toured extensively with influential acts such as Jane's Addiction and the Dillinger Escape Plan, solidifying their reputation as one of the United Kingdom's most innovative and enduring heavy music ensembles.[1][4]History
Formation and early releases (2005–2008)
Rolo Tomassi was formed in February 2005 in Stocksbridge, a suburb of Sheffield, England, by siblings James Spence on keyboards and backing vocals and his sister Eva Spence on lead vocals, initially as a creative outlet that blended mathcore with experimental and electronic elements.[9][10] The band's name derives from the fictional character Rollo Tomasi, featured in the 1997 film L.A. Confidential.[2] The original lineup was completed by guitarist Joe Nicholson, bassist Joseph Thorpe, and drummer Edward Dutton, with the group drawing from the vibrant local underground music scene in Sheffield.[10][9] Embodying a strong DIY ethic, Rolo Tomassi self-released their initial material, including a 2005 demo recorded on a four-track cassette that captured their raw, chaotic sound and helped establish their presence in the regional hardcore circuit.[11][12] James Spence founded the independent Mayday! Records label specifically to handle these early efforts, reflecting the band's commitment to grassroots production and distribution without major label involvement.[13] The group began performing live shortly after formation, playing small venues and DIY shows in Sheffield during 2005 and 2006, where their high-energy, unpredictable performances quickly garnered attention within the local post-hardcore and mathcore communities.[9][3] By 2006, Rolo Tomassi had signed with the independent Holy Roar Records, a label known for supporting UK hardcore acts, leading to the release of their self-titled debut EP that year, which featured eight tracks showcasing their frenetic blend of aggressive riffs, synth layers, and dual vocals.[14][15] This signing came after building momentum through local gigs and informal tours, including appearances at underground festivals that highlighted their innovative approach and contributed to a growing cult following among fans of experimental heavy music.[11] In 2007, the band continued self-releasing additional material via Mayday! Records, such as limited-edition EPs and splits, further solidifying their reputation for hands-on involvement in the UK's DIY punk and metal scenes before transitioning to larger opportunities.Hysterics and Cosmology era (2008–2011)
In 2008, Rolo Tomassi released their debut studio album, Hysterics, on 22 September through Hassle Records.[16] The album was recorded in spring 2008 and produced by Jason Sanderson, resulting in a raw, chaotic sound characterized by frenetic mathcore riffs, abrupt tempo shifts, and contrasting melodic interludes.[17] Standout tracks such as "I Love Turbulence" and "An Apology to the Universe" exemplify the band's early style, blending high-energy grind-like intensity with ethereal keyboard passages and dual vocals from Eva Spence and James Spence.[18] Critics praised Hysterics for its innovative execution and youthful exuberance, with Drowned in Sound noting its transitional qualities and impressive debut status, while Sputnikmusic highlighted its rollercoaster-like creativity and well-executed ideas.[19][20] Following the album's release, Rolo Tomassi undertook extensive touring across the UK and Europe, including performances at festivals like SXSW in 2009 and support slots for acts such as Pulled Apart by Horses.[21][22] This period solidified their reputation for dynamic live shows, marked by the band's precise yet unpredictable energy. The lineup remained stable, featuring Eva Spence on lead vocals, James Spence on keyboards and backing vocals, Joe Nicholson on guitar, Joseph Thorpe on bass, and Edward Dutton on drums.[5] The band's second album, Cosmology, arrived on 24 May 2010, also via Hassle Records, and marked a shift toward more experimental territory.[23] Produced by Diplo in Los Angeles and mastered by Howie Weinberg, it incorporated electronic synth elements and ambient textures alongside the core mathcore framework, as heard in tracks like "Beatrotter" and "Party Wounds."[24][25] The album debuted at number 19 on the UK Independent Albums Chart.[26] Reception highlighted its polished evolution, with Pitchfork commending the well-recorded integration of synths and vocals, and Drowned in Sound appreciating its dynamic shape-shifting charm despite occasional overambition.[27][24] In late 2010 and 2011, the band expanded internationally with their first full US performances, supporting tours while maintaining lineup consistency to fuel further experimental growth.[21]Astraea and lineup shifts (2012–2013)
In early 2012, Rolo Tomassi underwent significant lineup changes, with original bassist Joseph Thorpe and guitarist Joe Nicholson departing the band due to personal differences and commitments such as university.[28] These shifts marked a transitional period, as the band integrated new members Chris Cayford on guitar and Nathan Fairweather on bass, while retaining drummer Edward Dutton.[29] The flux in personnel presented challenges, including adapting songwriting processes to the fresh dynamics and temporary arrangements during rehearsals, which contributed to a more introspective and cohesive tone on their subsequent release.[30] The band's third studio album, Astraea, emerged from this period of adaptation and was released on November 5, 2012, via their self-founded label Destination Moon Records.[29] Produced by Jason Sanderson—who had previously helmed their debut Hysterics—the record showcased the group's evolving sound, incorporating heightened ambient textures and progressive structures, as evident in tracks like "Ex Luna Scientia," which blends ethereal synth layers with intricate rhythmic shifts.[31] Keyboardist James Spence played a key role in the production, contributing to the album's layered electronic elements that built on prior explorations while emphasizing emotional depth amid the chaos.[32] Following the album's release, Rolo Tomassi embarked on extensive touring in 2012 and 2013 to promote Astraea, including a UK headline run with the new lineup and appearances at European festivals such as 2000 Trees, which helped solidify their growing international following.[33] These performances highlighted the band's resilience, with the refreshed ensemble delivering high-energy sets that bridged their mathcore roots and experimental leanings, fostering deeper connections with fans across the continent.[3] Critically, Astraea received moderate to positive reception for its maturation, with reviewers praising the shift from unbridled intensity to more structured experimentation that integrated the new members' influences seamlessly.[34] Outlets noted the album's balance of ferocious riffs and ambient interludes as a confident evolution, though some observed it as a consolidation rather than a radical departure, earning scores around 7-8 out of 10 for its refined yet accessible approach.[30][31]Grievances to Time Will Die (2014–2019)
In 2015, Rolo Tomassi released their fourth studio album, Grievances, on June 1 through Holy Roar Records in the UK and Ipecac Recordings internationally.[35] The album was recorded at The Ranch Production House in Southampton and produced by Lewis Johns, marking a continuation of the band's self-directed creative process following their previous self-produced efforts.[36] Tracks such as "Raumdeuter" and "Opalescent" exemplify the record's exploration of emotional turmoil and introspection, with bleak, soul-searching lyrics that convey themes of grief and isolation.[37] The inclusion of string arrangements, featuring violin and viola by Andrew Stuart-Buttle on tracks like "Crystal Cascades" and "The Emptiness of Time," added a layer of haunting melancholy to the band's mathcore framework.[38] In 2014, drummer Edward Dutton departed and was replaced by Tom Pitts, achieving greater stability in the lineup during this era, with guitarist Chris Cayford—who had joined in 2012—solidifying his role and contributing to the progressive, layered guitar work that enriched their sound.[39][36] This period allowed Rolo Tomassi to refine their blend of chaotic intensity and atmospheric depth without major personnel changes thereafter, fostering a more cohesive unit alongside vocalist Eva Spence, keyboardist James Spence, bassist Nathan Fairweather, and drummer Tom Pitts. Building on this momentum, Rolo Tomassi issued their fifth album, Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It, on March 2, 2018, via Holy Roar Records.[40] Recorded at The Ranch, the album was produced by Lewis Johns, emphasizing their evolving fusion of ambient textures, post-metal expanses, and mathcore aggression.[41] Standout tracks like "Rituals" and "Contretemps" highlight this innovation, weaving ethereal synths and dynamic shifts into emotionally charged compositions that explore mortality and catharsis.[42] The record earned widespread critical acclaim, achieving a Metacritic score of 92 out of 100 based on seven reviews, positioning it as a landmark in the band's discography for its ambitious scope and sonic maturity.[41] Throughout 2014 to 2019, Rolo Tomassi expanded their live presence with extensive touring, including a performance at Download Festival in 2018 where they delivered high-energy sets blending tracks from their recent albums.[43] They undertook multiple US runs, such as their 2018 North American tour supporting Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It, which included stops at venues like The Troubadour in Los Angeles and The Fillmore in San Francisco.[44] Although earlier collaborations with The Dillinger Escape Plan had influenced their trajectory, this period saw the band headlining slots and sharing stages with peers in the mathcore and post-hardcore scenes, solidifying their reputation for visceral, technically precise performances.[1] Rolo Tomassi garnered increasing recognition as genre innovators during these years, with features in Metal Hammer highlighting their emotional depth and boundary-pushing style, such as a 2015 anniversary profile on their decade of underground impact.[21] In 2018, they received a nomination for Best UK Band at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards, underscoring their rising influence amid a competitive field.[45] Critics and outlets praised their ability to merge hardcore ferocity with cinematic ambiance, establishing them as a pivotal force in modern metal's evolution.[46]Where Myth Becomes Memory and onward (2020–present)
In 2020, Rolo Tomassi departed from their longtime label Holy Roar Records amid allegations of sexual misconduct against founder Alex Fitzpatrick, joining a wave of bands and staff severing ties with the imprint.[47][48] The band's exit was part of broader fallout that led to Holy Roar's closure later that year.[49] By August 2021, Rolo Tomassi signed with eOne Heavy (now MNRK Heavy), marking a new chapter that facilitated their subsequent releases.[50] The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted the band's 2020 touring plans, including postponed dates for international runs such as a planned Australian trek with sleepmakeswaves, forcing adaptations like rescheduling and contributing to delays in their creative output.[51] While live shows ground to a halt, the band navigated the period through pragmatic adjustments, reflecting on isolation's emotional toll without derailing their long-term vision.[4] Building on the critical acclaim of their 2018 album Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It, Rolo Tomassi released their sixth studio album, Where Myth Becomes Memory, on February 4, 2022, via MNRK Heavy.[52] Self-produced by the band with assistance from longtime collaborator Lewis Johns at studios including The Ranch Production House in Southampton, UK, the record blends expansive post-metal atmospheres with shoegaze-infused textures, exploring themes of memory and loss across its 10 tracks.[53] Standout songs like the shimmering "Parklands" and the emotive closer "Memorial" highlight this evolution, earning widespread praise for their ambition and sonic depth, including a glowing review from Kerrang! that lauded its mesmerizing immersion.[54] The album's reception solidified the band's reputation for pushing genre boundaries, with critics noting its seamless fusion of delicacy and devastation.[55] In 2018, drummer Tom Pitts departed and was replaced by Al Pott, completing the current lineup that has remained stable since. In September 2024, Rolo Tomassi issued Live at Electric Ballroom, a 15-track album capturing their February 15, 2023, performance at London's Electric Ballroom, mixed by Lewis Johns and featuring fan favorites from across their catalog.[56] The release underscored their commanding stage presence, with the full concert video later premiering online to showcase the band's raw energy in a sold-out setting.[57] Marking their 20th anniversary in 2025, Rolo Tomassi surprise-released the EP In the Echoes of All Dreams on October 24 via MNRK Heavy, their first new material since Where Myth Becomes Memory.[58] The four-track effort—"Woodburn," "Tempest," "Dead Language," and "Unintending"—delivers moody, intense compositions that extend the band's atmospheric heaviness, serving as a celebratory capstone to anniversary events including headline shows and festival appearances.[8][59] The band maintained a robust touring schedule in 2025, including U.S. headline dates in Boston and Long Island leading into their Furnace Fest performance in Birmingham, Alabama, on October 4.[60] In Europe, they headlined festivals like ArcTanGent in the UK and played sold-out shows across the continent, sustaining their reputation for electrifying, high-energy live sets that blend chaos and precision.[61][62]Characteristics
Musical style
Rolo Tomassi's music is primarily characterized as mathcore, defined by chaotic rhythms, complex odd time signatures, and abrupt dynamic shifts that create a sense of controlled frenzy.[63] This foundation draws from grindcore roots, evident in the hyper-aggressive, high-speed structures of their early work, while evolving to incorporate elements of post-hardcore, progressive metal, and ambient passages for broader textural depth.[53] The band's sound blends dissonant guitar work with jazz-infused drumming patterns, fostering an unpredictable energy that alternates between abrasive intensity and intricate polyrhythms.[64] A hallmark of their style is the dual vocal approach, featuring Eva Korman's (née Spence) silken, soaring soprano lines that evoke ethereal and operatic qualities, contrasted sharply with James Spence's guttural screams and clean deliveries to generate dynamic tension and emotional duality.[4] Instrumentally, James Spence's prominent keyboard and synthesizer layers introduce ambient, atmospheric elements, often weaving piano motifs that counterbalance the heaviness with introspective, classical-inspired textures, while the rhythm section delivers propulsive, jazz-tinged percussion alongside tactile bass and guitar tones.[53] The band's sonic evolution reflects a progression from the raw, hyper-speed aggression of their 2008 debut era to more expansive ambient explorations in the mid-2010s, culminating in a mature post-rock sensibility since 2018 that emphasizes prismatic soundscapes and genre-defying experimentation, as continued in the 2025 EP In the Echoes of All Dreams.[4][8] Lyrically, themes of existentialism, personal loss, and fragmented memory recur, often paired with the group's DIY production ethos, which prioritizes raw, self-recorded intimacy over polished commercial aesthetics.[4] This approach underscores their commitment to authentic expression, as seen in albums like Hysterics, where chaotic structures mirror thematic turmoil.[53]Influences
Rolo Tomassi's sound draws heavily from mathcore pioneers, particularly The Dillinger Escape Plan for their rhythmic complexity and chaotic energy, and The Locust for grindcore's brevity and intensity.[65] These influences shaped the band's early frenetic style, blending intricate instrumentation with short, explosive bursts.[66] Broader inspirations include black metal's atmospheric darkness, evident in the brooding tones of their 2015 album Grievances, where the genre's influence contributed to a heavier, more ominous aesthetic.[67] Jazz elements appear in the improvisational drumming and unpredictable structures, adding a layer of sophistication to their hardcore roots.[65] Emo and post-hardcore bands like Pretty Girls Make Graves informed the emotional intensity of their dual vocals, emphasizing raw expression over technical prowess.[68] Non-metal touches incorporate psychedelic synths reminiscent of Pink Floyd's experimental soundscapes, contributing to the band's evolving ambient passages. Shoegaze influences, particularly My Bloody Valentine's textural guitar work, have impacted later albums through layered, immersive production.[69] As peers in Sheffield's vibrant 2000s metalcore scene, Bring Me the Horizon shared a DIY ethos that encouraged boundary-pushing innovation among local acts.[70] The band's experimental approach stems from the UK underground's DIY culture, where self-organized shows in small venues fostered creative freedom amid limited mainstream support.[71] Electronic producers like Brian Eno influenced the synth-driven tracks on Cosmology (2010), blending rock with ambient and dance elements through collaborations such as with Diplo.[66] Vocalist Eva Spence and keyboardist James Spence have cited classical music and film scores—particularly from horror films like Saint Maud and The Witch—as key to their melodic and dramatic vocal styles, drawing from piano performances and narrative depth.[72]Live performances
Rolo Tomassi are renowned for their high-energy and chaotic live shows, characterized by intense physicality and direct audience engagement that often sparks mosh pits and fervent crowd interaction.[73] Frontwoman Eva Spence contributes significantly to this dynamism through her acrobatic movements across the stage, including balletically precise jumps and dives that amplify the band's visceral presence. These performances emphasize a raw, unpredictable energy, with Spence's constant motion—dancing, bouncing, and smiling—drawing fans into a shared, exhilarating chaos.[74] The band's setlists typically blend explosive mathcore tracks from their early catalog with more expansive, ambient pieces from recent albums, creating a narrative arc that builds from frenetic blasts to immersive swells, lasting 45 to 60 minutes.[75] Visual elements, such as synchronized lighting that pulses with synth-driven sections and simple backdrops highlighting album artwork, enhance the atmospheric shifts without overwhelming the raw execution.[76][77] Notable tours include their early UK runs in intimate DIY venues from 2005 to 2008, which built a grassroots following through grassroots circuits, evolving into major festival appearances like Download Festival slots in 2010 and 2018, and a performance at Furnace Fest in 2025.[78][79][80][81] The band's 2023 performance at London's Electric Ballroom, their largest UK headline to date, was captured in full for the live album Live at Electric Ballroom, showcasing this evolution in a sold-out setting.[57] Following the COVID-19 pandemic, Rolo Tomassi adapted by resuming live shows in 2022 with heightened protocols, delivering intensified performances that marked a strong return and maintained their communal spirit.[82] Fans and critics alike praise the band's unpredictability and ability to foster community through these raw, unpolished executions, which contrast sharply with their studio recordings' precision and leave audiences in awe of the live immediacy.[83][84]Band members
Current members
Eva Korman has served as the lead vocalist for Rolo Tomassi since the band's inception in 2005.[85] As the sister of keyboardist James Spence, she co-founded the group alongside him in Sheffield, England, and her dynamic vocal style—alternating between piercing screams and ethereal soprano cleans—has become a hallmark of the band's mathcore sound.[86] Korman's commanding stage presence energizes live shows, where she navigates the intensity of performances with agility and emotional depth.[87] James Spence, Korman's brother, has been a core member since 2005, performing on keyboards and synthesizers while providing backing vocals and screams.[85] As a co-founder and primary songwriter, he crafts the band's intricate synth arrangements and layered compositions, often drawing from progressive and experimental influences.[86] Spence also plays a key role in production, contributing to albums like Where Myth Becomes Memory (2022) to refine the group's ambitious sonic palette.[53] Chris Cayford joined Rolo Tomassi as guitarist in 2012, integrating progressive riffs and dissonant textures into the band's evolving style.[86] Hailing from the Sheffield music scene, his technical precision enhances the mathcore elements, as heard in tracks like "Cloaked" from Where Myth Becomes Memory.[69] Nathan Fairweather has been the bassist since 2012, delivering a solid rhythmic foundation that anchors the band's complex structures.[86] Previously a member of the instrumental math rock band Brontide, Fairweather's addition post the Astraea era (2012) brought greater stability to the lineup.[88] Al Pott became the drummer in 2018, excelling in the handling of intricate time signatures and dynamic percussion that support Rolo Tomassi's genre-blending intensity.[86] His contributions, evident in live renditions of songs like "Labyrinthine," align with the band's jazz-tinged experimental roots.[89]Former members
Rolo Tomassi's original lineup featured several key members who contributed to the band's early sound before departing in the early 2010s. Bassist Joseph Thorpe, a founding member in 2005, played on the debut album Hysterics (2008) and follow-up Cosmology (2010), providing a foundational rhythmic drive amid the band's chaotic mathcore style. He left the group in early 2012 due to personal differences, as stated by the band in interviews following the announcement.[90][28] Guitarist Joe Nicholson, also a founding member from 2005, shaped the band's initial aggressive and dissonant riffs on Hysterics and Cosmology. His tenure ended in 2012 when he departed to pursue university studies, a move that prompted a significant refresh in the band's instrumentation.[90][28] Drummer Edward Dutton, another original member since 2005, delivered the high-intensity blast beats and complex patterns that defined the band's live energy during the Hysterics and Cosmology eras, as well as contributing to Astraea (2012). He exited in 2013, coinciding with further lineup adjustments to evolve the band's direction, though specific reasons were not publicly detailed beyond the need for change.[21][6] Tom Pitts joined as drummer in 2014, bringing a more dynamic and jazz-influenced approach that powered Grievances (2015) and Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It (2018), enhancing the band's matured intensity. He left after the 2018 release to focus on other musical projects, including work with Insecure Men, marking the end of his four-year stint.[39][91] In the band's formative years, Rolo Tomassi occasionally relied on temporary drummers and guitarists for select tours, but these short-term contributors did not leave a lasting imprint on the recorded output or core identity.[92]Timeline
