Distant recently started a new chapter by the addition of vocalist Alan Grnja (former Shrill Whispers, SK). This was followed by the release of EP ''Tsukuyomi'' in the summer of 2017 and the split-EP ''Icon of Evil'' with Bound In Fear in early 2018.With full force they are heading their way in becoming a well-known band within their genre, pioneering it in the Dutch music scene.
