HILLTOPS ARE FOR DREAMERS is a UK and Greece-based project formed in 2018. They self-released their debut EP in January 2020, blending early 2000s metalcore with blues and catchy melodies, earning positive reviews. During the 2020 lockdown, they released the split EP “A Transition” with Repent For Joy, further evolving their sound.
Their debut full-length album, “In Disbelief” (March 2022), marked a departure from their earlier style, incorporating black metal, acoustic blues, progressive elements, and electronic touches, while maintaining their post-hardcore roots. The album received critical acclaim, with Metal Hammer Greece rating it 8/10 and Rock Hard Italy giving it 8.5/10. In 2024, they released the melancholic 3-song EP “The Tragedy of Being Human”. The new EP “A Soulless Drive,” out on May 16th, 2025, leans into a more direct rock sound, while remaining melancholic and anthemic.
