Album: "FLESH IS HEIR (CD O-CARD)"

Year: 2013
Media type: CD

Like all truly extreme artists, THE AMENTA has long been defined solely by its refusal to be defined. Formed in 2002 by Erik Miehs (Guitars) and Timothy Pope (Noise and Fx), THE AMENTA's early experiments with dissonance resulted in “Mictlan” MCD. Two years later, the band had signed to Listenable Records who released the debut full length, “Occasus”. The album received excellent reviews world wide and resulted in THE AMENTA being named Best New Metal Act by the Australian Kerrang Awards.

After numerous Australian tours with bands such as AKERCKOKE, THE BERSERKER, PSYCROPTIC and RUINS, THE AMENTA had discovered a more feral, angry aspect to their music. This was channelled into 2008’s divisive “n0n” album. “n0n” was a dense, ugly, sprawling hymn to urban decay. It’s was anti everything. Off the back of this filthy paean to political manipulation, THE AMENTA toured Australia then headed to Europe to tour with DEICIDE, VADER, SAMAEL, DEVIAN and ORDER OF ENNEAD. The U.S followed with VADER, DECREPIT BIRTH, WARBRINGER, AUGURY and SWASHBUCKLE. Upon returning to Australia in, THE AMENTA, now completed by Cain Cressall (Vocals), Robin Stone (Drums) and Dan Quinlan (Bass) recorded and released a free download of a huge multimedia release in 2011entitled “V01D”.

THE AMENTA toured Australia again with this release and recorded many of the shows for future release. In 2012, the digital E.P “Chokehold” was released. Now in 2013, THE AMENTA will release “Flesh Is Heir”, the latest full length album. The most organic and open of THE AMENTA’s releases, “Flesh is Heir” builds huge sculptures of sound from decayed choir loops and found percussion, the strongest riffs and guitar hooks in THE AMENTA catalogue and an immaculate vocal performance. Lyrically it deals with the constant war in the human psyche between the faction that desires obliteration and the faction that struggles in the mud. This bipolar theme is carried through to the music which is at once, ugly and beautiful, organic yet electronic, lightning fast but also crushingly slow, and always dark as pitch.

THE AMENTA have entered a new era of their growth. Like always, this music is not for the tin-eared and terrified. This music is for the true adventurer. It is extreme music. It is not Industrial. It is not Death Metal. It is not Black Metal. It is THE AMENTA.
