Sydney Australia-based extreme metal act THE AMENTA will join VADER, DECREPIT BIRTH, WARBRINGER, AUGURY, S.W.W.A.A.T.S. on “Monsters Of Death Tour” presented by Decibel Magazine. “Monsters of Death Tour” kicks off on November 4 in Baltimore, Maryland and will run for 38 dates across North America, also marking the first North American tour for THE AMENTA.
THE AMENTA is currently on the road with PSYCROPTIC and RUINS on the “Unleashing The Extreme Tour 2009” in Australia. All upcoming tour dates, including “Monsters of Death Tour” can be found below.
n0n, the latest album from THE AMENTA, was released on 10 February 2009 in North America via Listenable Records. The CD, which came out in Europe in October 2008, was mixed at The Vault Studios in Sydney, Australia with longtime engineer Lachlan Mitchell (NAZXUL). Mastering n0n took place at Studios 301 with Australia's premier mastering engineer Steve Smart.
THE AMENTA describes the n0n’s sound as a fusion of extreme metal, electronic noise and dub. The follow-up to 2004's Occasus features tracks in total, with each song containing over 100 actual recorded tracks, pushing technology to its absolute limits. Rather than relying on the clichéd shit in which other bands are content wallow, THE AMENTA has constructed an album built on new ideas, new concepts, new sounds and new techniques. n0n is the fusion of white noise, shards of dissonant guitars and dense layers of radio chatter. Lyrically, n0n is a newscast, “showing you the shit around you. Suicide bombers and evangelists, freeways and dead ends. n0n stands as an indictment on today's media and technology addicted society.”
