Devil Sold His Soul are an ambient influenced progressive metal/post-hardcore band from the South of England signed to Century Media. Three of the band joined from Mahumodo, thought to be a pioneer of the British hardcore scene[citation needed] . They released their debut full-length album A Fragile Hope on 18 June 2007, having previously toured the UK for several years[citation needed], along with the release of their debut mini-album Darkness Prevails, produced by Mark Williams[citation needed]. The band has finished recording its second full-length album, Blessed & Cursed (mixed by Steve Evetts) which was released on 18 June 2010. On 8 August 2010 they played at the Hevy Music Festival held near Folkestone, Kent, before embarking on a UK tour with metal group Architects. In January 2011, the band announced that bassist Iain Trotter has left the band to pursue a career outside of music. He has been replaced by Jozef Norocky, former guitarist of Rinoa. Mid-March 2013, Ed Gibbs announced that he would be leaving the band to also pursue a career outside of music after the upcoming music festivals were over. In April, Paul Green, once vocalist of The Arusha Accord, was recruited as vocalist.
