How did you find out about it Doc? I wonder how many people in SA know about them? Obviously more than I thought, if they think it's worth touring here.
This band is a really interesting mix of extreme metal genres, I'd call them blackened progressive melodic metalcore. ? They sound pretty gothic sometimes too in the big flourishing organ intros and just the way the melodies are written. Excellent riffing and not bad in the guitar solo department either as I recall (haven't listened to them in a long while.)
Their last (or was it second-last) album was produced by none other than Devin Townsend, who did an excellent job imo delivering a more focused, self-consistent album than the previous one had been. (Doc-Phil will be able to supply album titles I'm sure.)
This is an A-grade extreme metal band well worth investigating.
I'm a member of the Burn group on facebook and I just saw it through that ?
Ya Devin Townsend worked on Dichotomy which is a sick album. The one before that was Physics of Fire which was also really good, but my only complaint (and I think a lot of people complained about this ?) was the clean vocals. They were just wierd.
I think Count Seth is the man behind all the solos and guitar widdling... He writes some great stuff, and not just heavy riffage, he jams some amazing accoustic licks as well. ?
