Polaris - The Mortal Coil

The Mortal Coil is the debut studio album by Australian hard rock band Polaris, originally released in November 2017 via Resist Records.

The upper echelon of Australia’s heavy music hierarchy needed to make a little room as South-Sydney five-piece, Polaris announced their highly anticipated debut album, The Mortal Coil in 2017.

The Mortal Coil was recorded in Polaris' self-made studio in Mollymook, NSW, where they shipped American tandem, Carson Slovak and Grant MacFarland of Atrium Audio to oversee the recording. No strangers to success themselves, the hotly-tipped duo most recently produced, engineered and mixed August Burns Red’s Grammy-nominated album, Found In Far Away Places.

In 2016 Polaris burst onto the heavy music scene with their EP “The Guilt & The Grief”. Whereas most self-released EPs register as a mere blip on the radar, Polaris’ sophomore disc landed at #34 on the nation’s ARIA chart, as well as a head-turning #2 finish on the AIR polls.

The Mortal Coil peaked at #6 on the Australian album charts.

This album is 2021 reissue on transparent royal blue with white and red splatter coloured vinyl, with a printed insert, pressed in Australia via Resist Records.
