Fresh off the release of their sophomore EP, Second Circle, through Monolithic, progressive metal band Gyre are heading into the spotlight of North Jersey to take the scene by storm. Second Circle brings something new to the table with tracks inspired by classic themes such as delusion, all-destructiveness and disdain, and is carried out wonderfully both in the lyrics and fast and hard approach to the music. Grye are scheduled to headline three upcoming shows: Aug. 9 in Hoboken at Willie McBride’s, Aug. 16 in Montclair at the Meat Locker, and Aug. 24 in Clifton at Dingbatz.
