Soma Ras - Demo (2012)


Soma Ras
Album:  Demo
Genre:  Technical Blackened Death Metal/Deathened Technical Black Metal/Blackened Death Technical Metal/Metalled Black Death Technical/Facemelt

Track Listing:
1. Novus Ordo Seclorum
2. Symbiosis Rejected
3. Veiled in Deceit

Support:  Bandcamp ($3)

I’ve meant to post this for like a week but unfortunately just now getting around to it, and I’m blown away that this isn’t ALL OVER the internet already. Here we have an outrageously good side project/supergroup comprised of members from Embrace the End (preview), The Antioch Synopsis (preview), and John Abernathy/Abernasty from CONDUCTING FROM THE FUCKING GRAVE (no preview needed), yet Soma Ras somehow manages to sound nothing like any of its members’ main bands.  I think it might be what happened if you mixed Diskreet and Enfold Darkness – massive composition-based technical death metal (none of that mindless noodling shit) with subtle black metal influences.  Anyways, this demo has been vigorously fapped to by the likes of Fallujah, Abiotic, and Depths of Hatred, who call it the “best $3 (they’ve) ever spent”.  You get the idea, right?  Check out the download and chip in a measly $3 to keep this band making music.  Support the scene, homies <3
