Quotes:
"Balls to the wall heavy and brilliant, The Cartographer show exactly what they're made of, and they're made of the finest things in metal" - 8.5/10, Invicta Magazine
"Interestingly for UK Tech-Fest, Derby's The Cartographer are one of the only bands on Sunday's line up that fall under the 'djent' banner. With their sharp and groove ridden guitar work combined with scathing screams, the five piece pulled no punched. Showcasing material from their 2017 release "Human Error" as well as newly released track 'Hyde', it would not be a surprise to see their name being bounded about as one of the horses of the weekend!" - 8/10, Dan McHugh/Distorted Sound Magazine
Hot off the heels of their 2021 EP “Mind Atlas”, Derby extreme metal quintet The Cartographer have returned with their latest offering, “The Cold Black” EP, which is set for release on June 30th, 2023. Speaking about the EP, the band stated ""The Cold Black” EP is a screenshot of modern-day problems within an almost dystopian world, grappling with a rise in mental health issues within society. The core themes are self-hate, depression, and the breakdown of trust, both on a national and personal scale, and the damage that can and has caused."
Formed in 2013, The Cartographer are dedicated to channeling their combined passion & love for music into a spine shattering embodiment of modern deathcore. The band represents various emotions that derive from personal life experiences, and the band have made it their mission to remind every listener that they’re not alone in their battles.
The band have graced many stages, from performing at the prestigious UK Tech-Fest & Macmillian Fest, to supporting bands like Loathe, Skies In Motion, & King 810. With a plethora of experience behind them and an array of spine shaking songs under their belt, the band are set to appear at the 2023 edition of UK Tech-Fest before embarking on a co-headline tour with Glass Grave in November 2023. “The Cold Black” EP is only a taste of what is yet to come from The Cartographer.
