Concept Insomnia - Perpetuum Mobile - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

It sounds like METEMPSYCHOSIS, which later became MOURNFUL, had quite an interesting journey and evolution as a band. Starting in Tyresö outside of Stockholm in 1992, the band was a collaboration between Toni Kocmut, Dennis Ekdahl, and the brothers Marco and Joy Deb. Their early work, including the demo recorded at Sheep Valley Studios, set the stage for their evolving sound and identity. After the transition to the name MOURNFUL and the of another demo, the band eventually split, leading the members to pursue different paths in the music industry. Dennis Ekdahl and Toni Kocmut moved on to join SINS OF OMISSION, while the Deb brothers shifted focus to music production and songwriting. This led to varied and successful careers for the members, particularly Joy Deb, who went on to co-write the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest-winning song InchHeroes.Inch The re-recording of METEMPSYCHOSIS tracks as a surprise for Dennis' bachelor party is a touching tribute to their beginnings, capturing the essence of their early work and their passion for metal. The decision to these recordings as a homage to new and struggling metal bands worldwide is a meaningful way to honor their roots and give back to the community that supported them. This not only commemorates the band's history but also serves as an inspiration for upcoming musicians, showing how the journey from a small band to influential careers in the music industry can unfold.

With their fourth album InchCosmocratorInch, Khnvm are entering a downward spiral into the abyss of the human experience. The death metal brainiacs explore the crossroads of psychology, philosophy, and spirituality. The album title InchCosmocratorInch carries a dual significance. It symbolises the InchRuler of the WorldInch and, within religious vocabulary, also stands for InchSatanInch. This reflects the album's exploration of common phenomena, expressed through an adrenaline-fueled artistic lens. With the thought-provoking lyrics and harsh yet to the point musicality of InchCosmocratorInch, Khnvm promise not to just deliver on musical terms but also to captivate those who are drawn to complex narratives and philosophical depth. Khnvm are a death metal band that has walked the line between old school death metal and contemporary influences without stumbling. Fronted by Bangladeshi-born guitarist and vocalist Obliterator, the band was founded and is firmly based in Germany. When Khnvm entered the scene with their debut album InchForetold Monuments of FleshInch on Testimony Records in 2019, they were immediately met with acclaim both from critics and fans alike. In the wake of the second album, InchPortals to OblivionInch (2021), Khnvm began to perform live. Meanwhile, Khnvm have toured, entered stages at many festivals, and played headliner and support shows across Europe. With InchCosmocratorInch, Khnvm offer a dual approach The easy way is to enjoy the album simply for it's outstanding musical merit. Yet there is also the far more winding path to take with it's intricate lyrics and rich thoughts to be analysed, explored, and discussed for many years to come - and new meanings to be found as well as discoveries of fresh ideas to be made with each new turn!
