October Sky is a Canadian rock band from Montreal, Canada. Formed in 2000, the group currently consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Karl Raymond and drummer Alex Racine. The style of their early music, including their debut album Hell Isn't My Home, has been described as progressive, but they started to add several electronic elements to their sound on subsequent albums. The Aphotic Season was the first step in that new direction but their latest EP Rise marked a major shift in their sound.

To date, October Sky have released two full-length albums - Hell Isn't My Home (2008) and The Aphotic Season (2012), and three EPs - October Sky EP (2006), Green and Beautiful EP (2010), Rise (2015).
