Polyphia – ‘Playing God’
Polyphia were last in the country in September 2018, when they supported Canadian prog-metal band Intervals on their Australian tour. Since then, Polyphia have released two albums: 2018’s New Levels New Devils and last year’s Remember That You Will Die.
The latter was produced by LePage and fellow guitarist Tim Henson, with additional production from Rodney Jerkins, JUDGE, longtime collaborator Y2K, Johan Lenox and more. The album featured guest appearances from Deftones vocalist Chino Moreno, guitar virtuoso Steve Vai, American rapper $NOT and others.
