Last month French progressive metalcore band Novelists came back onto the scene in a big way, releasing 'Turn It Up (Keyboard Warriors Social Club)'. Proving that the September return was just the beginning, Novelists have followed it with another absolute banger 'Prisoner'.With new vocalist Camille Contreras injecting a fresh sound and life into the band, the French marvels are heading out on the road with new music and revived enthusiasm. Finishing the year with dates around their home country, the Novelists are heading out to take on the rest of Europe and the UK.The new single 'Prisoner' is intense and dynamic. Layers up layers of groove and speed, it stands out even in this new golden age of metalcore experimentation. Contreras's vocals are soulful and hypnotising, pulling you down and taking your hand through a journey of vulnerability. It is accompanied by a captivating greyscale masterpiece of a music video that is more than just visually stunning. It gives us a little more insight into a band that if their music is anything to go by, is dripping with personality.Words by Kayla Hamilton (@kaylazomboid)
