CONTACT: kimaera.org@gmail.com Order 'Ebony Veiled' "here" REVIEWS available @ www.stgyiancrypt.cjb.net - 'Press' section
"Ebony Veiled from Lebanon’s Kimaera, is a seamless blend of graceful doom and death metal that is rewarding if you enjoy livelier, yet still heavy music that makes a definite harsh impact, but also taps a few more accessible emotive aural heartstrings here and there with a very convincing delivery. "
"Kimaera have produced an extremely admirable piece of work here. I’d put this on par with Novembers Doom when they really hit a strong stride on Ebony Veiled, and some moments are nearly in league with Daylight Dies and Agalloch. It goes to show good metal can be found everywhere, and to give it all a chance. It might not be easy to obtain, but if you managed to get your hands on this album, I can almost guarantee you’d never even entertain the thought of parting ways with it."[metalreview.com]
"It may appear that Doom has long since outlived itself, however, 'Ebony Veiled' the long awaited album of the Lebanese band 'Kimaera' which was released by the Russian label Stygian Crypt can destroy this stereotype and easily claim to be the Doom metal discovery of this year."
"..Currently, the band is working on its second album which can make us forget the old idols of Doom and make us talk about it but this will happen only if the band will be able to overstep the boundaries of Ebony Veiled. So, My Dying Bride, be aware!" [Darkside.ru]
"Their sound takes us back to the early 90's and into the British Isles, where bands such as My Dying Bride, Anathema and Paradise Lost were starting their careers."
"From the all different bands that have tried to succeed in this genre, Kimaera is one of the few that succeeds in creating more interest than the rest."[Overhookmusic.com]
'..Theres nothing more compelling than a band that tends to stray away from the already conquered grounds of the Metal battlefield. Its nice to hear something different every once and awhile and thats what drew me towards KIMAERA ..'
'..I had never heard so many darker genres fused together at once. Theres a bit of something for every Metal fan.' [Metal-observer.com]
KIMAERA was founded back in summer 2000 by Vocalist/Guitarist JP, under the name 'Chimera' . The band makes original music with a dinstinctive style
coming across as a combination of the members' different and various influences into a mixture of Symphonic/Atmospheric/Doom/Death Metal, with a gothic feel through passages of violins, pianos and female vocals. The band managed to release a self-produced Single entitled 'God's Wrath' in March 2004, which is available for download at their official site.The single got
excellent reviews worldwide and helped the band getting more exposure in the underground metal scene. The line-up went through lots of changes throughout the years, which caused the band many setbacks ...
KIMAERA's debut album Ebony Veiled was released in February 2006 in Lebanon, and worldwide in April, through Stygian Crypt Productions, from Russia.
KIMAERA are currently working on their second full length.
"«Ebony Veiled» is what you can regard as a very easy record to listen to, composed and played by obviously talented musicians who can compose and arrange. Good, very good." [PullTheChain.be]
"No doubt, this release will make a small revolution into doom metal circles and open the world of real and clean Art from the big letter! Must have to any doom metal soul!!!"[Arcana-noctis.com]
"Don't forget the name KIMAERA because you'll surely be hearing a lot of it in the future."[Metal-March.com]

My new 3 album box set ODESSA delves into the disgusting involvement the United States government had in hiding Nazi war criminals that were deemed, "intelligence assets", to be used against the Russians. ODESSA also examines the enthusiastic role the Franciscan Order, Argentinian and Chilean Governments, and Arab leaders who hated the Jews played in hiding and finding new homes for former fascists. It seems many nations had a reason to keep these monsters from being captured, and this is my attempt to expose the establishment of a Fourth Reich in South America that still exists to this day.
