ASHURA
Since their debut, four years ago, Ashura has invested french and european scenes, promoting and presenting their Death metal : Raging death metal.
The style forged by the band relies on a Us Death metal basis to wich Ashura graft elements from Thrash metal, scandinavian death metal as well as some Hardcore new school touch powering up the music practised by the combo.
The band live performances are thus overflowing with communicative energy, alterning brutal and extreme passages and some more melodic parts. But it's with the frequent use of mosh part and mid tempo that the group shows all its power and heaviness. Ashura's influences could be briefly defined by a crossing between : Morbid angel, old metallica, The haunted, Pantera, Nostromo, Death, Hatebreed.
But exact as this may be, this particular mix is not able to define precisely the group "Raging death". With their first album "legacy of hatered", well noticed by specialized press (Metallian, hard n heavy, rock hard, legacy... ), the most visited websines and european underground, Ashura went to promote their music all across Europe.
A serious opportunity as Ashura had the honour, ftr 10 shows, to be the oppening act for one of the best death metal band in the whole world : Vital Remains. This tour helpd the group considerably in forging a solid experience on bigger stages and very correctly diffusing the band's name and reputation beyond national borders.
During 2006 and 2007, Ashura kept promoting their first album wich was out on september on Thundering records. Ashura also had the opportunity and honour to open for Entombed, Dismember at a famous french fest, recently for Napalm Death and Born from Pain.
Ashura will be the oppening act of the cult Death Metal legend : Massacre, for their reunion tour “ Back from the dead the reanimated tour”, accross over 13 countries and 25 shows in Europe!!
