About Me

Once upon a time there was darkness... progressive darkness. Some like-minded persons decided to gather for a common aim - play metal in the spring of 2004... or not, simply TO PLAY, because nobody can normally play any instrument. They had aim only... First gig was at the faculty day, at the university where we studied, we played there some covers like Aerials and Nothing else matters. Our own songs appeared later, when we found a permanent place for rehersals. But study and work filled our life almost fully and that's why we hadn't enough time for creativity. Only in 2006 we started to take part in some local gigs. For that moment we play with one guitarist Ivan, drummer CoF, Daemon on vocals, Beaver on keyboards, Taranaga on bass and some weak second guitarist Perda, who was exiled from the band for his inabillity to play. With that stuff we played two gigs in July, 2004 and started to find the second guitarist. In september we found Stigmatheist, who satisfied all of our requirements, and necessarily the advanced view on music, and we started to create... After Stigmatheist coming, first guitarist, drummer, and keyboardist left the band and bassist (Taranaga), vocalist (Daemon) and Stigmatheist stays without any hope; but dreams was raised from the dead by their good friend (and also guitarist, who was enraptured by Stigmath's guitar technic's) by rehearsal's base - Check. The conception and veiws on music was changed, Check returned desire for writting and the past mood, with his light opinion about heavy music. In renovated staff, band appears for the first time in December 2006. After that, original drummer left the band. We started to play with programmed drums and search a new one. We played... played... played... and someday we saw, that we growed up in composition and technics. New songs began to raise like flowers on the field, so many impulses we had... In summer we began to record on one's own our first demo/promo. Now we can show only two songs, the next one will be finished soon. The number of tracks, expecting on the future promo is seven - 5 songs and 2 instrumental compositions.Our music conception lies on the shoulders of Stigmath, Taranaga and Check. All songs was written only as result of the "three opinions combination", three sights, three minds... Pain, love, vodka, human troubles and the inner struggles - are the main themes and inspiration in our creativity. Our lyrics conception depend on Daemons mood. Sometimes he writes plainly, keenly, difficult to understand what he exactly want to say. Another time he's lyrics are very easy to understand and keep in mind for a long time, with a simple one-read understanding.We think, our music is different for a different listener, because so many people, so many minds. One can find it interesting, melodic, progressive, another can say, that it is a "cheap & raw death"... We trying to play music that is not popular, but it has it's own listeners, admirers.

Member Since: 1/23/2008
Band Members: Daemon - vocal, lyrics Stigmatheist - lead guitar Check - rhythm guitar Taranaga - bass Arsenicum - drums
Influences: From our bandname you can think, that we are faithful Opeth fans... Yes! We are! But we try not to copy Opeth style and conception, our music rather inspired by them. More evil, sometimes more brutal, less acoustics, atmospheric like... frequently syncopate, few and far-between contradictorily experimental, melodic... After Opeth - Novembre is the second band, which had made a very strong influence on us. Their sound and atmospheric pressure makes us more concentrate in the music creation and sets priority for our thoughts. Again, we don't copy them! Some jazzers, maestro's - Sun Ra & Frank Zappa. Evil, avantgarde and black italians - Ephel Duath. Shuldiner, his Death (in both meaning) and Control Denied. Perverted - Coprofago... Some trip-hop bands, like Massive attack... It's only about music, but our life - is the biggest inspiration of our music and lyrics!
Sounds Like: Sometimes apeared Opeth-like builded riffs, sometimes clean vocals in the manner of Novembre; growling destruction all itself; often double bass drum apears; many acoustic moments chains the aatention among the struggling death riffs...
