AngelMaker is a Canadian Deathcore band from Vancouver, formed in 2011.
Their first line-up consisted of vocalists Casey Tyson-Pearce and Mike Greenwood, guitarists Cody Tyson-Pearce and Colton Bennett, bassist Cole Rideout, and drummer Jesse Price. In September 2012, the band self-released their debut EP "Decay", which features six tracks and a collaboration with Darian Mazloomi of Argent Strand. Almost half a year later, they released a 3-fold split EP with the bands Lament and Isolations. In 2014, guitarist Cody Tyson-Pearce left the band, and was replaced by former Threat Signal guitarist Matt Perrin.
They independently released their debut studio album "Dissentient" in 2015. In October 2016, they released the split EP "Unholy Alliance" with Australian deathcore band A Night in Texas. Between March 3 and April 8, 2017, Angelmaker played their first concert tour as a headliner across the United States, with the tour kicking off in Vancouver. This tour was accompanied by Falsifier. After winning a fan contest, the group was allowed to open the full Summer Slaughter Tour. They next released their self-titled sophomore album in 2019.
In 2020, the band welcomed third guitarist and songwriter Johnny Ciardullo, and the following year parted ways with founding drummer Jesse Price. In March 2022, they released their third studio album Sanctum. The album was met with overall positive reception and was described as being standard, classic deathcore. Later that year, the band welcomed new drummer Steven Sanchez, formerly of The Last Ten Seconds of Life.
From late 2022 to early 2023, the band released covers from various bands such as, "In Dying Days" by As Blood Runs Black, "Knee Deep" by Job for a Cowboy and "Deathmask Divine" by The Black Dahila Murder.
The band would then go on a headline tour, dubbed "The Suffer Forever Tour" that took place across the US and Canada from August to September 2023 with support from Vulvodynia, Falsifier, Carcosa, and A Wake in Providence. On August 11, 2023 the band released another split EP, this time with Carcosa titled "The Ghost Sessions". On November 10, 2023 the band released a single titled "Suffer Forever".
In October 2024, the band announced former Rings of Saturn vocalist Ian Bearer as their new co-lead vocalist alongside Casey Tyson-Pearce, quietly parting ways with founding co-lead vocalist Mike Greenwood in the process. Greenwood had been absent from recent live performances, with his spot temporarily filled by multi-instrumentalist Cameron "Big Chocolate" Argon, notably of the solo project Disfiguring the Goddess.
On October 24, AngelMaker released the single and music video "Relinquished", their first release to feature Bearer on vocals.
