Ethereal Collapse (NEW SONG POSTED!)

All of our songs are about dead hookers.

About Me


Hailing from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Ethereal Collapse is an ardent group of young individuals that hope to do nothing but propagate the true spirit of heavy metal. Throughout its existence, the band has strove only for purity and excellence, crafting songs that embody everything for which good metal stands. Melody, aggression, and other traditional elements are readily discernible throughout each Ethereal Collapse song, and the band works hard to ensure that these elements are recognizable. Blending the sounds of Bay Area thrash with Swedish melodic death metal, they create a frighteningly original brand of music. One year after signing with Innerstrength Records, the group disbanded, but they have since reunited, and they are once again ready to spread the metal gospel to all who desire it.
"Ethereal Collapse is one of the best up and coming melodic death metal bands America has produced." -Pivotalalliance.com Webzine
"Ethereal Collapse personifies every aspect of heavy metal that I happen to love: fast, heavy guitar parts, multiple integrated guitar solos, breakneck drumming, and powerfully-delivered vocals." -Deadtide.com Webzine
"These guys know how to make melodic death metal!" -The Metal Archives

REVIEWS (click the links that follow for full text)

"...Breaching the Citadel fucking rocks; none of it ever becomes predictable or stale. Every track on this disc is a breath of fresh air for the melodic death metal fan who has seen the greatness of the mid to late 90’s dissolve into a shit-stew of bad clean vocals, metalcore breakdowns and scattered, uninspired songwriting."
-Deadtide

"...not one minute [of "Breaching the Citadel"] is boring. This is one of the best self released albums I heard. If you’re looking for some good melo death in the vain of Soilwork...mixed with some thrash metal, this is the album for you."
-Digital Steel

"...if solos are what you like, then Breaching The Citadel and all of its amazing, sweep-picked leads are just what the doctor ordered. This is a band in need of a home."
-Pivotal Alliance

"Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllentttttt alert!!!!!! [Ethereal Collapse] is pretty awesome."
-Ultimate Metal

"Chuck [Schuldiner] must be smiling from his grave. ["Breaching the Citadel"] is a very well done, professional CD."
