Year Of The Flood hail from Nottingham in the UK. Drawing influences from ramming speed D-beat hardcore, doom and down-tempo sludge metal they use their music to paint a bleak picture of a world on the brink of it's ultimate self-consumption. Heavily inspired by the dystopian literature of author Margaret Atwood, with the overriding themes of violence, greed, consumerism and social selfishness that threaten to overwhelm modern society.

Described as "like Cursed and Tragedy brawling, with Converge looking on." and "a combination of their geographic origins of Nottingham through the ages put in a crash test car and accelerated into a wall of Neurosis records" Year Of The Flood are an intense mix of melodic structure and brutal, ramming speed riffs. An "all out musical war!!!".
