   About Amidst Haze
Amidst Haze is a progressive extreme metal band leaning closer to black/pagan metal than anything while incorporating elements from death metal, doom metal, classical, and folk. We formed in Christchurch, New Zealand in the year 2000 and we're currently in the process of mixing our debut: A Dying Race.

A Dying Race and its themes have no relation to nationality. The race being addressed is a mythological Celtic tribe called the Tuatha De Dannan who - in the record - act as a metaphor for a race of people connected not by blood but by the hearts that pump it.

For those of you who don't have a myspace account and want to be added to our mailing list or have a query you can contact us at amidsthaze@hotmail.com

In the first three months of production I have sold 22 Persona Series Cassettes. These albums are completely original 45 minute recordings, named after the purchaser who also retains full rights to further production of, and broadcast of the release. Each Persona Tape comes with 2 hand drawn mini posters, and a hand drawn cover. This is the most unique and exciting release you will ever own, order yours now for $10 (domestic shipping included, international shipping determined by distance) while I still feel like making them! Thanks for your time, and thanks for letting me advertise on this site :)

Yeh guys, your shit is metal! haha

Dude, GBOB is on in Christchurch this weekend and we'd like to have you guys on stage at Al's Bar. It'll be an awesome night, especially if you come along! There's a pretty small line-up, but it means that there is a good chance for you to go thru to the NZ Regional Final! oh and don't forget that Grand Prize of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS CASH! (Think of the amount of partying you could do!)

So seriously guys, let us know if you're interested cos you've got a great sound and I reckon you'll create a fanbase from all over the world! Let us know what you think! My email is burgessventures1@bigpond.com or register online at www.gbob.com

Your music's good!
I like the fact that you sing about the Tuatha de Dannan. I spent a long time studying them and the Firbolg's and the old celtic paganism. Cool to see someone remembering them.
