About Me

DARK AWESOME & ATMOSPHERIC BLACK/DEATH METAL.Metamorphosis is actually not a "band" in the true sense of the word, but rather a pure soloproject . Though all the instuments on the albums are played by one single person, it is also represented by a real liveact.Metamorphosis was founded in 1993 by Boris Ascher, who had learned after many years in diverse undergroundbands to play all the instruments by himself. The first Demotape released in `94 under the title “Life is just a joke” gained a lot of positive resonance around the world.In 1997 Metamorphosis contributed to the “Out of the Box”Vol.1 Compilation CD of the famous swedish label Black Mark Productions with an appearance of the song "Forever damned to eternity".The first full-length CD “Through the gate of dreams” came out in 1998. Recorded at the excellent Munich Amazonas studio it results in a varied, clear and powerful production, which sounds like a true liveband. The album gained a lot of fine reviews in the international musicpress and undergroundscene and even helped Metamorphosis to some successful live-shows too.The second full-length album “Nocturnal Rhymes” was released for the first time in 2001. The included eight songs were composed with a special care for the transposition of live performances later on. Hence there are some compositions on it that can not be omitted at a Metamorphosis show.Since Dez. 2003 the album "Gnosis Diabolo" is available. It is an over 60 minutes philosophic, satanic musical document_ There was a strong use of diverse electronic instruments on it. Also it contains some experimental ambient tracks. It was the first production out of the house-own The Dungeon Studio.Further available is a reissue of the "Nocturnal Rhymes" album with new artwork. These two issues also represent the first releases of the label The Devil`s Ground Productions.On August 13th 2007 the brand-new album "Creation in reverse" will be officialy released through The Devils Ground. It contains eleven new well-devised compositions in the accustomed black magical manner. The lyrical concept as well as the artwork (modelled on Michelangelo) largely deals with creation and destruction on a metaphysical level.www.the-devils-ground.comAlso available at:www.opengraveshop.com
