Bio
ALTAR OF OBLIVION were formed in 2005 and play epic Doom Metal. The Band captures the Spirit and Atmosphere of this underrated Genre in a compelling and credible Manner. Like skeletons walking a burning tightrope, this Danish act perfectly holds and strikes a balance between the grandiosity of classical, the down-tuned heaviness of 70s doom rock/metal, the tuneful catchiness of 80s pop music plus the pace and majestic melodies of 80s heavy metal. On behalf of Altar of Oblivion, I encourage the listener to dive into the sinister soundscapes created by this vigorous quintet to experience an atmospheric and melancholic display of grand euphony. Many greetings, Martin Meyer Mendelssohn Sparvath -

Greetings from Symbolizer (formerly Symbolic),
We are happy to let you know that our long awaited debut album Thanatos Unleashed has been unleashed! Featuring eight hard hitting and melodic thrash metal compositions, the album has been released through Hellion Records in Germany.
Reviews:
"Excellent examples of ethereal and aggressive thrash metal, characterised by a hail of riffs and dynamic solos, sung by the fine voice of Rasmus Kiaer"
metalbrigade .it, Italy
"Singer and guitarist Rasmus has a great, raw, yet melodic voice, fitting perfectly with the songs that draw influences from bands like OVERKILL, ARTILLERY, MELIAH RAGE or XENTRIX and ONSLAUGHT. You will find some very touching compositions that are great to headbang to. Killer debut album!"
