Settle The Sky is a metalcore ensemble originating from Fremont, Ohio, with activity spanning intermittently since 2006. Its members have been involved with notable bands such as Blessthefall, Before Their Eyes, Convictions, and Legacy.
Background
Established in Ohio in 2005, Settle The Sky produced their EP Now That We're Waiting in 2007 under the guidance of producer Joey Sturgis, which was subsequently released in 2008 through StandBy Records. Prior to their 2010 dissolution, they toured alongside acts like Vanna and The Crimson Armada. Following the breakup, several members became part of groups including Before Their Eyes, Convictions, and Glaslungs. Initially recognized as a Christian band, some participants have since moved away from this characterization. The band reunited in 2016 and performed in Ohio during February 2017; however, they later revealed intentions to retire the Settle The Sky name and continue creating music under a different moniker.
On June 7, 2017, the band self-released the single "A New Way". By June 2020, they announced progress on studio recordings and released singles "Year of Ruin" on July 17 and "Linger" on December 4, demonstrating sustained presence within the metalcore genre.
