ELUSIVE GOD signs with MOMR, official video online.
Last but definitely not least, we're stoked to announce that the Croatian epic doom metal band ELUSIVE GOD has joined our roster. We've been big fans of their music from the start, so when they wrote to us a couple of months ago, sending their latest work, we didn't have to think twice.
The upcoming album of this band formed in 2018 is a continuation of the style they have already made themselves known for: pure epic doom metal in the vein of the greats like CANDLEMASS and SOLITUDE AETURNUS, but with a particular similarity to one newer doom metal purveyors EVANGELIST thanks to the vocals (which some compared also to Bruce Dickinson and Warrel Dane). However, there's one significant difference and change that you will notice on their second full-length titled "Ambis", scheduled for an early October release: the album is sung entirely in their native tongue, Croatian. While this might be a barrier to some, it lends to the special character to their music, which they like to describe as Croatian Metal sound. No matter if this claim has merit or not, it's an undeniable fact that they shine on their, admittedly very small, local metal scene like a bright star, but they have already conquered the hearts of many doomheads and metalheads outside of their borders as well, not only with their previous releases, but also with their live shows (including a gig at the Doom Over Vienna festival and at Satan Klaus Fest in Czech Republic).
The band commented:
"We are devoted fans of traditional metal and we never hesitated to emphasize that. MoMR's moto is "Old school metal or no metal at all" and that's one of the main reasons why we instantly clicked. It's a label led by devoted metal fans, releasing music for passionate metal fans. We were familiar with their work and they were already fans of Elusive God. Long story short - our cooperation was bound to happen sooner or later. We're glad to be a part of the MoMR's story because we need a label that believes in our music and our artistic vision. Their dedication to metal music is truly remarkable.
Let's keep the metal faith alive."
Earlier this year, ELUSIVE GOD released an official video for "Ples Demona" ("Dance of the Demons"), a song off their upcoming album, on the NWOTHM Full Albums YouTube channel.
