Following on from 2018's critically acclaimed studio album, Sonder, the band, in the midst of a global pandemic decided to come together to present P O R T A L S a cinematic live experience like no other. The band took livestreams to a new level by interspersing a conceptual storyline with their live performances that featured a colossal and highly spectacular arena-style light show.
TesseracT are a band that sit outside the bounds of any genre specificity, pioneers of the ever-evolving rock and metal scene, with an unstoppable force of off-kilter riffs, soaring melodies and disorientating atmospherics. They put all of this into the December 2020 event that featured the band performing songs spanning their entire catalogue. Highlights included "Nocturne" off their 2010 debut EP, Concealing Fate and continued with "Eden" (One, 2011), "Of Matter" (Altered State, 2013), "Tourniquet" (Polaris, 2015), and "King" (Sonder, 2018), with the whole performance capturing 14 songs over 2+ hours.
