A UK metal band that's spent decades channeling Black Sabbath and Celtic Frost into songs about religion, politics, and confrontation.
If you want to hear what they're about, try 'Satan, Your Kingdom Must Come Down' or 'Artifice Intelligence.' Both get at those religious and political themes they keep returning to.
They've never softened their approach, even when songs like 'Satan, Your Kingdom Must Come Down' drew criticism for their lyrics. The track 'Rime' shows how they maintain that heavy, confrontational sound album after album. They've kept making music for listeners who want metal that doesn't back down.
They formed in the UK in the late 1990s and put out 'The Last Days of Man' in 2001. Nearly two decades later, 'Empire of Embers' arrived in 2018 with Chris Bowes still on vocals and guitars.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
