Why should major label bands be the only ones who get love? Unsigned & Streamed is a new column where we stream a song from an unsigned band we at Metal Insider really dig.

This week, we’re putting the spotlight on Philadelphia’s Maris Lane. Though they’ve only been together for less than a year, this five piece metal/hardcore band has been making a name for themselves following the self-release of their debut EP The Pursuit. And in such a short time, Maris Lane have shared the stage with bands like Volumes, Structures, Scale the Summit, and Hundredth. Maris Lane’s sound reminds us a lot of early Killswitch Engage and August Burns Red. So without further ado, give the band’s newly released single “We Are…” a listen in the stream below.

Maris Lane will be heading back to the studio this coming Winter to record a new EP, which they hope to release in early 2012. You can keep up to date on everything regarding Maris Lane, as well as download their debut EP The Pursuit, via their Facebook page.
