After the singer Roshan Lang left at the end of 2008, Dominik Thoma switched from guitar to vocals and Michael Böhm took the free seat on guitar. Samuel Schäfer replaced Maximilian Clauss on drums. With this line-up, the band played extensive tours through Germany and Europe every year between 2008 and 2010. Before new songs were written and recorded, the line-up changed again. Kevin Follath took over from Adam Lasocki on guitar and Bernd Haide took over the place on drums. In 2011 the new line-up recorded the second studio album Consequences , which was released in April 2012 via Ampire Records . In the run-up to the album, a music video was shot for the song The Realm of the Dead and published on YouTube. In September the band went on an autumn tour across Europe to promote the new album. Guitarist Michael Böhm left the band in April 2013. In the same year new songs were created that would later appear on the third studio album Black Clouds .

style

The Listen-To-It Network describes the style of the album When Walls Break Down as "melodic metalcore". Metal1.info describes the style of the follow-up album Consequences with "Rather, the band knows how to combine powerful grooves [...] and catchy refrains including numerous gang shouts with catchy melodies." The band itself describes their style simply as metal. By combining different styles, No End in Sight have already been able to play together with metal greats such as Sepultura and Neaera or with hardcore bands such as Sick of It All , Stick to Your Guns and Walls of Jericho .

The lyrics of the songs deal with a. with topics like animal welfare and critically deal with politics and religion. The band positions itself clearly anti-racist and anti-fascist and practices a vegan / vegetarian lifestyle.
