Issue #318 (Stars of 2026 - Imminence): Digital Edition

Imminence are on the cover of Rock Sound as one of our Stars of 2026.

Dark, dramatic and daring in all the right ways, Imminence have gone from underground heroes to one of modern metalcore’s most intense and exhilarating assets over the last few years. As they close the book on their ‘The Black’ era, vocalist Eddie Berg and guitarist Harald Barrett take us inside the steps that have led them here, what lessons such intense worldbuilding has offered up and how they are guiding them as they shift focus to their next spellbinding adventure.
