Volition (2016)
Volition was released in June 2016 following several delays. It received positive reviews across the critical sphere, with The 405 describing the album as 'gigantic...[yet] effortlessly intimate,' praising the 'cohesion in sound and vision'. Ben Yung of therevue.ca gave a glowing review, stating: 'Volition is stunning, an absolute emotional roller coaster from start to finish. It is easy to understand why it took two years for the Brighton-based five-piece to complete their debut, as every single detail has been given the utmost attention and the production is refined and masterful. Every note, every vocal component, every lyric, every instrumental texture has been attended to and nothing feels out of place. With the precision of a surgeon and the steely aim of an assassin, Phoria hits every mark, including piercing a hole through our hearts with their visceral and emotional electronica.' The album was supported by festival appearances throughout 2016 and a UK and European tour. In 2018, the song "Evolve" was featured in an episode of the Syfy original show, The Magicians. Tim Douglas left the band in 2019 citing 'personal reasons'. Saving Us A Riot was used in Season 3 of Killing Eve. It was announced Jeb Hardwick had rejoined the band in August 2019
