Conceived in 2014, Pull Down the Sun creates atmospheric and groove-heavy music shaped and inspired by the curious history and scenic nature of Aotearoa. Having played up and down their beautiful country, PDTS are no strangers to Aotearoa. Boasting an international standard of modern metal, they have been hand picked to support many local and international acts. PDTS bring a wondrous reference frame of late 90's 'Deftones' style riff mastery, coupled with modern influences of metal elites such as 'Gojira' and ‘Isis’. In doing so, Pull Down the Sun creates a glorious set of imagery that holds true to sheer riff obedience, making motions from heavy and erratic, to dark and moody, through to light and uplifting with minimal effort. Their journey thus far brings us their debut album ‘Of Valleys and Mountains’, which was self released on 12/08/2020 with a worldwide reissue set for 4/2/2022 through Pelagic Records. ‘Of Valleys and Mountains’ is a colourful concept album that channels their Maori heritage, exploring local legends that have been passed down generations. PDTS’s debut album is centered around the local Maori myths of the Patupaiarehe and the Tūrehu, an Aboriginal people absorbed by Polynesian immigrants to NZ 1000 years ago. Mixed by Zorran Mendonsa (New Way Home, Coridian, Claemus), mastered by Forrester Savell (Karnivool, SikTh) and stunning artwork by Chris Panatier.
