The Cost
THE COST was formed in Valencia, Spain in 2023 when drummer El Estepario Siberiano, bassist Chris
Attwell and guitarist & vocalist Peter Connolly met at their producer’s acclaimed recording studio. Chris
and Peter performed in a jazz band that recorded at the studio and as El Estepario Siberiano explains he
could hear them through the thin walls and was very impressed with their music and ability. He thought to
himself “they have a jazzy style, but if they just added some gain to what they were doing, it could be
metal”
. So he asked them if they would want to give it a try and do what they do, but just add distortion.
The result is the incredible Doppler Affection album.
Bringing together three distinct musical backgrounds & cultures, this culmination promises to be one of
the biggest sounds in music today. With Peter and Chris being graduates of the Berklee Music program in
Valencia and El Estepario Siberiano’s infamous drumming skills, the band seamlessly blend their
technical prowess with great songwriting ability. Power and virtuosity meet soaring vocals, haunting
melodies, anthemic rock choruses, and brutal breakdowns.
THE COST’s debut single “Not For Me” has over 6 million streams and views across all platforms and
even garnered some airplay on Sirius Octane. Subsequent singles “Into The Drone” and “Her Eyes
(featuring Serj Tankian of System of a Down) have also accumulated several millions of streams and
views on DSPs. Debut album Doppler Affection was unleashed on 29 March, 2025 and reached #1 on the
albums iTunes Charts in its week of release.
The band performed their first ever show at the Comendatio Festival in Portugal and will also be featured
at Spain’s Leyendas Del Rock Festival in summer 2025. A proper headline tour to support Doppler
Affection is to be announced in the near future. THE COST are an undeniable force poised to carve their
place in the rock and metal music scene through incredible live performances, relentless touring, and a
continual stream of blistering new music.
