Molybaron is a French-Irish alt metal band.
History
Molybaron was formed in late December 2014 in Paris, by Dublin born vocalist/guitarist Gary Kelly and guitarist Steven Andre. Their sound ranges from tech-grooves and anthemic metal to multi-layered atmospherics.
The band self-released Molybaron, their debut album, in May 2017. The band toured Europe with NYC metallers A Pale Horse Named Death in 2019.
The band's second studio album, 'The Mutiny', was self-released on May 21, 2021. Soon after, the band signed with the record label Inside Out Music (Sony Music) and the album was re-released on 29 October 2021.
On its first release, the album gained positive reviews from some magazines, including Metal Hammer UK, who wrote: “Diverse and satisfying, The Mutiny is a banger!”.
Rock Hard Magazine named 'The Mutiny' Album of the Month in their May edition.
Inside Out Music published the band's third album, Something Ominous, on September 15, 2023.[1] The band chose three singles from the record, namely Vampires, Something Ominous and Reality Show.
