A melodic death/black metal quintet from Belgium combining the brutality and sonic assault of death metal with the dark & brooding charm of black metal, enriched by adventurous and at times avant garde orchestration. This mixture, spiced up with harmonically rich guitar wizardry and a penchant for the melancholic, introspective soul of doom metal forms the essence of what they call ‘Nekroman†ic metal’.
