Burning Embers With ORPHEUS OMEGA

Burning Embers With ORPHEUS OMEGA

Author: HEAVY Magazine November 7, 2024 Duration: 21:42
The only thing better as a band than hitting the road after releasing an album is hitting the road with your mates, so it was a no-brainer really when Melodic Death metal powerhouse ORPHEUS OMEGA (VIC) and Symphonic Gothic Metal masters CARMERIA (NSW) announced they would be touring together to promote recent albums.
Dubbed the Embers Of Tragedy Australian Tour, the run of shows celebrates Orpheus Omega's Emberglow album and Carmeria's Tragedie D'amour, with both releases considered as pivotal in the blossoming futures of both bands. 
Emberglow sonically marrie sOrpheus Omega's classic melodic death metal roots while taking their largest leaps yet into uncharted territory including moments of progressive metal, metalcore, doom metal and more. It is a brave and typically bold step forward for the band, who over five albums and three EP's have continually pushed themselves and their boundaries, despite gathering a loyal fanbase that would be satisfied with their music changing only minimally.
HEAVY sat down with the whole band recently to discuss the tour and whatever else seemed appropriate at the time.
We discussed the Emberglow in greater detail and how ambitious the band actually considers their sonic shift. The band mentioned that the album has a strong personal element, with each band member contributing their own unique influences. They emphasized the importance of the pre-production process in shaping the album's cohesive sound and talked about the balance between different genres in the album and how difficult it was to get right.
They also discussed their upcoming tour and the effort they put into creating a memorable live show experience, just what to expect and more.
