Arkdown are a 4 piece metal band from Sheffield, UK. Formed in late 2015, the band draws heavily on modern metalcore and death metal influences framed by their signature melodic but heavy riff based style.

Self-releasing the single 'In Torment' and their debut EP 'The Calling' whilst touring the length of UK, Arkdown have supported a glut of heavy hitters in the scene from Fit for an Autopsy and Oceans Ate Alaska, to Kingdom of Giants and A Night in Texas.

With the release of their second standalone single, 'Miasmic' came a maturing step in the band's sound and an extension of their reach as they broke out of the UK to play shows in mainland Europe. Since then Arkdown have taken the time to refine both their line up and sound as they began work on their next record, Terra Phasma, which was released in December 2021.
