Sydney’s Polaris return with their first new music in three years, unleashing their brand-new single “Without You” via SharpTone Records.

Born from unimaginable pain following the loss of their bandmate and brother Ryan Siew in 2023, “Without You” channels their love, hurt and heartbreak into an indelible end result. The track coalesces caustic vocals, crushing beats and torrid riffs set against soaring melodic choruses, a heart-wrenching guitar solo and a ferocious breakdown outro that rivals Polaris’ heaviest moments to date. Hauntingly poignant, its lyrics show the band in their most brutally vulnerable state.
 
“Never did we imagine that we would one day have reason to write this song. But three years on, we find ourselves still making sense of this immeasurable tragedy, and what it has meant to be left in the wake.

This is the sound of crushing loss, shock, grief and heartache, and the beginning of us learning how to share that with the world.” –  Polaris

Alongside the global release of “Without You”, Polaris have also today shared an enrapturing music video that powerfully captures the track’s ferocity and emotion. Highlighting the members left behind in this tragedy, the video brings forth their future while also reflecting and taking note of their creative past; interspersing imagery drawn from the band’s history with solemn visuals of the members performing in a stark, empty cathedral.

Now with three studio albums, multiple ARIA Award nominations, millions of streams and a formidable global live reputation under their belt, Polaris have cemented themselves as a conduit for creating music that challenges, reflects and inspires, blending melodic metalcore and lush post-rock with electronic flourishes.
