Maps And Foils is an alternative/metal/post-hardcore band from Paris, founded in 2016 by Tristan (vocals, guitar) and Thomas (guitar, backing vocals). Over the years, they have explored a wide musical spectrum, releasing two full-length albums—#1 and Less Is Mort—as well as diverse projects, including the grindcore EP Les Anathèmes and the documentary At Spes Non Fracta.
Following Thomas’s departure, the band evolved into a power-trio, with Ewen on bass and Lucas on drums. In 2024, with its renewed line-up, M&F released the EP Dies Irae, a prelude to their next full-length record.
In 2025, Maps And Foils returned with Après l'éclipse, the first single from their third album, Nulle Part. This conceptual record delves into themes of wandering and self-destruction, blending dissonant hardcore with ethereal melodies to amplify its introspective lyrics. Marking the end of an era with the original lineup, the album also signals a new chapter for the band. With Antoine now on bass, Maps And Foils is stronger than ever, ready to bring their latest work to life on stage.
