sentries is a recording project led by kim elliot, a solo artist. he started writing and recording songs in 2020, and spent a year in college learning about recording and mixing music on his own. the first album AGONIZER was his final project for college, so many around the band consider Snow as a Metaphor for Death to be the band's first 'real' album.
after Snow's success in 2024, kim decided to start turning sentries into a more tangible, real world band, so multiple lineups of touring musicians and friends have been formed for future shows in Canada and a UK tour this summer. during this time, he started work on the band's next album Gem of the West, out May 2nd on his own label eau claire records. all of the band's work thus far has been recorded and produced entirely by kim elliot at his home.
