Formed in 2011, Norway's NACHASH have patiently etched out a unique space in the wider metal underground. A power-trio from the very beginning, the band's members currently play or have played in such bands as Celestial Bloodshed, Askeregn, Knokkelklang, Hideous Death, Kosmik Tomb, and Black Edifice among others. Black metal is the beginning base - unsurprisingly, given their country of origin - but elements of other metallic styles have been intertwined in varying degrees. The goal, ultimately, has been to conjure a dark and aggressive atmosphere yet keeping an epic bent to the music throughout, as well, by drawing on several traditions and styles. NACHASH took their first steps toward that goal with 2015's Conjuring the Red Death Eclipse EP and then accomplished exactly that with their debut album, 2018's acclaimed Phantasmal Triunity. Now, they're set to eclipse that estimable full-length with LP#2, Eschaton Magicks.
