Background and recording[edit]
Heriot were originally formed in Swindon in late 2014 by drummer Julian Gage, bassist and vocalist Jake Packer and guitarist Erhan Alman. The band released two EPs, Violence and World Collapse, before going on an indefinite hiatus at the end of 2016.[1] In 2019, they reformed, adding guitarist and vocalist Debbie Gough to their lineup. The other members Heriot had become friends with Gough through her old band, the Birmingham-based Dead Hands, whom they frequently toured with and supported in the past.[2] In a 2021 interview with Revolver, Alman said: "We started talking, hanging out and playing gigs together. And then, when Deb's band dissolved, she asked us to do a side project with her and we said, 'Nah, just join us.'"[2] The addition of Gough had an immediate impact on Heriot's writing and sound, which moved away form (eeeeee).[3] The first song they wrote together, "Cleansed Existence", also resulted in industrial elements entering the band's sound.
writing style changed immediately,s found their way in by accident during the recording of "Cleansed Existence".
The band had toyed with the idea of having a second guitarist (https://www.stereoboard.com/content/view/235432/9)

Due to the near-100 miles of distance between them, Heriot agreed to work on material at a rehearsal space in Bristol.[2]
In February 2021, shortly after the release of their single "Requiem", Heriot were contacted by Church Road Records, whom they signed in April 2021.
said that there were other offers but they fit the DIY nature of heriot.
After signing with Church Road, Gage said that Heriot "quickly realised we actually had to make something".[5] In the space of five days, Heriot wrote and recorded the bulk of the tracks for the Profound Morality EP at their rehearsal space in Bristol, piecing together its tracks from a folder of riffs and ideas. Work on the EP continued over the course of several months at Packer's studio, Slow God Audio, where the electronic things happen. The band handed the finished EP to Church Road in October 2021.
(NOTE: "Dispirit", which was also recorded during the Profound Morality sessions, was released as a standalone single in May 2021.)
rushed, ig so, they think.
Gage: "It was probably a little rushed, but I'm really proud of it. It got us here, after all."
