Continuing their rise up the charts, they followed with Ritual (2017) and Mother (2020), the latter of which garnered the band its first Grammy nomination for 'The In-Between.' Their eighth set, Godmode, was released in 2023.īorn of a chance meeting and the innate musical rapport established between vocalist Maria Brink and lead guitarist Chris Howorth, In This Moment quickly grew from local cult favorites performing in Los Angeles clubs to a MySpace phenomenon before landing a deal with Century Media. As their audience expanded, they made their major-label jump in 2014 with Black Widow. Their darker third set, 2010's A Star-Crossed Wasteland, arrived in 2010. Guided by commanding vocalist Maria Brink, whose range can veer from throat-shredding screams to bright, atmospheric singing in an instant, the band debuted in 2007 with Beautiful Tragedy before moving into more melodic territory with its fantastical 2008 breakthrough album The Dream. Los Angeles-bred outfit In This Moment pepper alternative metal with metalcore, goth, and industrial to form a potent blend that has made them a platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated mainstay on the hard rock circuit.
