Gods of Eden Will Keep Blowing Your Mind Until There’s Nothing Left

Nayon – Heavy Blog ...Is Heavy

Gods of Eden are a band pushing the limits of creativity and technical ability. Starting out as a solo project in 2010, Gods of Eden developed rapidly into a full line up that combines a fanatic love of heavy metal with an alternative view of modern society’s dystopian ideals.

The band’s music, which can be best described as Technical, Progressive Metal, is rich, layered and full of nuance. This is accentuated and amplified by the addition of acoustic guitars, orchestras, and electronic sound scapes, to create something larger than can be attained through traditional means. Each song, which vary from intense and overbearing to sweet and intoxicating, is combined with lyrics that explore concepts and alternate theories of the truths that lie behind the veil of our modern existence.

There are those who shout Gods of Eden from the mountain tops, proclaiming the next big thing in tech/prog metal, and those people are not doing so without justification- the music is insane. Sam Maher – Metal Obsession

In June 2012 Gods of Eden played their debut performance in front of a full house in Sydney, successfully launching their self titled EP, which was closely followed up with shows interstate as well as supporting international touring bands. In 2013 Gods of Eden had started to spread their music onto the international stage with shows in Europe including the 10 year anniversary of Germany’s R.U.D.E. open air festival in July 2013.

Gods of Eden are currently on the lookout for the right label and management to assist with the release of their new album entitled “From the End of Heaven”, a masterpiece 2 years in the making. This modern work of classical composition is heavily structured with a calculated mathematical combination of harmony and chaos, untied in a way that will only come to be recognized in time as signature Gods of Eden. The songs from the bands first full length album are composed of such intricate detail that, in some instances, they have exceeded the maximum track count for Pro Tools! This album is truly an indication of the highly ambitious nature that is the driving force behind Gods of Eden.

Gods of Eden’s first video for their first full length album’s title track “From the End of Heaven” was released in January of 2014 and was rapidly nominated for the best visual effects category of the Berlin Music Video Awards, in which it achieved runner up status, above much larger artists like Korn and Katy Perry, in May 2014.

Gods of Eden’s self-titled EP is now available for purchase online through their website, iTunes, Google Play and Spotify. The band’s first full length album, “From the End of Heaven”, is ready for release on the 9th of October. Meanwhile the band is working hard at honing their craft while developing new, completely unique, songs that push the boundaries of current recording technology, creative ability and human perception.

...the ‘Gods’ are keen to push the boundaries of the genre to places which must be heard to be believed …in fact so fast is their galloping blitzkrieg assault to the senses that I must have missed the title to most of the songs!

“When I clicked “play” on their Bandcamp player, I was immediately impressed. It sounded like technical done well. But then I kept listening. There was . There was prog metal-esque clean singing. There was a flamenco section. There was a choir, an orchestra, pianos — everything. I know you’re just going to say this sounds like a train wreck, but it’s not. It works. I even tend to be critical of Between the Buried and Me for their genre-bending elements, but here I was just blown away. It works because none of the elements are half baked. The tech death is Gorod-level. The progressive metal is as good as old Pain of Salvation. The death metal is reminiscent of Lost Soul. And each song they pull out new tricks from their sleeves, the awesomeness never ends. If I’m going to fully endorse one EP this year, it is this EP.”

“Gods of Eden are another example of how far the musicians of today are expanding their technical abilities, this has to be the most intricate band I have heard for quite a while.

The way the band seems to be able to take music to another level is just unbelievable. This EP is a certain eargasm for any metal fan and not just the extreme technical death metal fans. I would recommend Gods of Eden to anyone who likes quality music that is intense, brutal and original.”

- Andy - The Metal Review

“Gods of Eden are quite intriguing, to say the least. Their debut self-titled EP, only four songs, has provided me with a suitable mind-fuck likely to last all year. To say I want to see a full-length would be a massive understatement.

You have blazing, technical, off-the-wall riffing full of thrash blood, tech-death bones, sinew, and /prog metal synapse connections. The vocals equally span the range on that spectrum.”

- The Mad Israeli - No Clean Singing “Another highlight of the evening was the hyper-technical fusion metal GODS OF EDEN… … the ‘Gods’ are keen to push the boundaries of the genre to places which must be heard to be believed, combining the blistering fret board acrobatics of guitarists Andy Suppradit and Danni (Perez), shock and awe blast beats and drawing the best elements of thrash and in all its intensity…in fact so fast is their galloping blitzkrieg assault to the senses that I must have missed the title to most of the songs!”
