Heaven in Her Arms are a Japanese post-hardcore band from Tokyo. Named after a song from Converge's 2001 album Jane Doe,[2] they have released 3 studio albums, 2 EPs and 6 splits since 2005. In a positive review of the band's 2017 album White Halo, Pitchfork writer Andy O'Connor described their style as an amalgamation of extreme metal, post-rock, and 1990s emo.[2] He compared them to fellow Tokyo band Envy and named both bands a strong influence on their one-time tour-mates Deafheaven.[2] As of 2020, Heaven in Her Arms are signed to Daymare Recordings in Japan, Moment of Collapse Records in Europe, and Translation Loss in North America.[1]
