Having cut his teeth with Cynic, Defeated Sanity, and as frontman of the "Death To All" touring tribute to Chuck Shuldiner, it™s safe to say that Max Phelps, founder of Exist, has proven himself a more than capable performer in the progressive death metal world. Phelps formed Exist back in the late ˜00s releasing the "In Mirrors EP" in 2010 and following it up with the band™s debut full-length, "Sunlight" in 2013 . The began recording new material in 2016 and got in touch with Prosthetic Records, who signed Exist immediately. So True, So Bound, Exists™ debut album for Prosthetic, is a concept album that takes a look at how language and concrete definitions create societal rules and guidelines. It™s a fitting subject in today™s quick to judge and dismiss world where a lot of communication is done through 140 characters.
