All together bonded with orchestral film score writing
Recently signed with Earache/Elitist records, metal band Biomechanical have gathered all forces and unleashed their sonic assault with their new album The Empires of the Worlds !!!
Biomechanical got noticed after 2003 saw the release of their long awaited debut album Eight Moons which has received awesome reviews from the Internet and printed press:
Metal Hammer UK: "Eight Moons is among the most far reaching records of the year"
Terrorizer: Suspended between Nevermore and Dream Theater, Biomechanical are surely the greatest new UK band of their kind."
Kerrang: Eight Moons is an impressive opening shot, sounding state-of-the-art without losing sight of the undeniable pleasures of old school metal
Total Guitar: think back how you felt when you first heard records like British Steel or Killem All. It really is that good.
Internet sites have written:
Sometimes a Surprise of The Month is not enough. It would just be too big of an understatement. Surprise of the Year would not be enough. I had never heard a single word of a band called Biomechanical in my life. Then an avid reader here at MR informed me that theres this band that I might like. And sure enough I did!! Metal Reviews
Biomechanical is an awe-inspiring band to watch out for. This is metal for people who want more.
Maximum Metal
I must have heard their debut album Eight Moons dozens of times and its still impossible for me to find ONE fucking thing that will make me describe Biomechanical as anything less than unbelievable .Control and Resistance
Biomechanicals style that many claim to be a unique blend of traditional metal, Thrash and modern metal with a personal twist of film scoring orchestral writing, has given the band the chance make their mark in the Metal world and create musically their own space amongst other bands.
Biomechanical was founded by John K in April 1999, where he wrote the material of the Debut album Eight Moons. Recorded a demo which was finalized and released in 2001, the same period when the first line up was completed. The demo was titled ‘Distorted’ and gathered great reviews from countless sites and magazines.
On Terrorizer: Biomechanical sound like they could well become leaders and not followers in their field." (9/10 Paul Schwarz).
Same reaction was given from all the magazines and sites who reviewed Distorted giving Biomechanical a great start and enabling them to negotiate with many companies who came forward for the release and their debut album. It wasnt long until Biomechanical secured a deal and Eight Moons was released by the legendary Revolver Records last October!
Since then Biomechanical have Headlined the second stage @ The Bloodstock UK metalfest,played @ the Headway Festival in the Netherlands opened for bands such as Devildriver,Stampin Ground, Shadows Fall and Nevermore, Chicago Power Fest and South By South West In Texas. Uk tour with Decapitated, European Tour with Exodus!
After many gigs and great reviews Biomechanical have established their own space in the Metal world and created enough interest to get the attention of Lee Barrett (Elitist Records) .
After negotiations all parties agreed and singed with Earache/Elitist records on September the 3rd 2004!!
Biomechanical have completed their UK tour supporting 3 Inches of Blood in 2007 and are in the last stages of mixing and mastering 'Cannibalised' - out early 2008!
