About The Plot In You
Hailing from Findlay, Ohio, The Plot In You have carved out a significant niche in the alternative and metalcore scenes since their formation in 2010. Led by the enigmatic and intensely talented Landon Tewers on vocals, the band initially gained traction with a heavier, more abrasive sound that quickly evolved. Their early EPs and debut album showcased a raw aggression, but it was with subsequent releases that their unique blend of crushing breakdowns, intricate guitar work, and Tewers’ incredibly versatile vocal range truly began to blossom.
Their style is a captivating fusion of metalcore’s intensity and alternative rock’s melodic sensibility, often underscored by post-hardcore nuances. Tewers effortlessly transitions between guttural screams and hauntingly beautiful clean vocals, giving their music a dynamic edge that few bands can match. Lyrically, they delve into themes of personal struggle, relationships, and self-reflection, creating a deep connection with their audience. Key albums like “Dispose” (2018) and “Happiness In Self Destruction” (2015) feature fan favourites such as “Feel Nothing,” “Take Me Away,” and “Swan Song,” tracks that perfectly encapsulate their emotional depth and musical prowess. The current lineup, featuring Landon Tewers, Josh Childress on guitar, Ethan Yoder on bass, and Michael Cooper on drums, operates as a tight, cohesive unit, delivering performances that are as technically impressive as they are emotionally charged.
