The EP dropped on April 8, 2022, following the release of the single 'New Low' in March of the same year. 'Extended Pain' gained significant attention with its intense nü-hardcore sound, amassing over 50 million streams on Spotify.

Continued Growth and Support Tours

These tours helped Thrown broaden their exposure in the metalcore and hardcore scenes and connect with more audiences across different regions.
