OMNIARCH RELEASE "OHM CAIRN" GUITAR PLAYTHROUGH VIDEO

PRESS RELEASE: 

Edmonton Progressive Death OMNIARCH Shares Guitar Playthrough "Ohm Cairn" (check below these lines). Unleashing their debut self-titled album earlier this May, Edmonton progressive death metallers OMNIARCH are sharing with fans their new guitar playthrough for the track "Ohm Cairn". Guitarists Mason Wilson (playing on a Solar S1.6 FR) and Morgan Lambert (playing an Ibanez RG550 in C standard) showcase the shredding fest.

The band adds: "This is definitely our toughest and most fun song to play! It has a little bit of everything: trem picking, string skipping, melodic leads, high-flying solo sections, a classical section, and all at a blistering 250 bpm! Enjoy."

A unique journey through history, mythology, imagination, and learning through introspection and reflection. OMNIARCH's seven-track debut full-length is a composite of progressive and technical death metal, played by five seasoned musicians that bring an eclectic set of skills to the band. The Canadian quintet is recommended for anyone with an interest in melodic, technical, relentless death metal, especially fans of THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, THE ABSENCE and ARSIS. 

Commenting on the album, the band had this to say:

"We hope fans of aggressive, progressive, and technical metal music will enjoy this one. We feel it's something new, but still within the realms of what we know and love. This debut album is our full, headlining set, and plays great in its track listing order. We are already working on an EP of all 7 string songs to follow, as well as working on another EP more indicative of our current sound/tuning. We released what we had up until now, and pride ourselves on our fecundity as a band. We have plenty of music coming down the pipe." 

OMNIARCH's self-titled album is available on Bandcamp, Spotify, and Apple Music.

About:

Omniarch was formed from the ashes of two former bands, Netherward and This is War. Morgan Lambert (guitar), Mason Wilson (guitar), Jon Hofmann (bass), Mackenzie LaHaye (vocals), and  Henry Giesbrecht (drums) who had played gigs together in separate bands, had always entertained the idea of joining forces. Eventually, conditions allowed for the amalgamation of the two bands into a new and wholly different alloy of metal and formed the beginning of Omniarch.

Giesbrecht, the original drummer, added a new dynamic to the band with his fresh approach to metal song structures. Eventually, Giesbrecht moved on and made way for Sean Higgins to step in and make his own indelible mark on the band with his nuanced sense of rhythm and pace. The disparate and yet congruous influences have come together to showcase a truly unique and exciting band, full of opportunity.

Each OMNIARCH song starts with a collaboration between Wilson and Lambert to determine the riffs, which are then brought to the rhythm section where they are morphed into a  cohesive idea that is splattered with aggressive technical death metal vocals with themes surrounding history, fantasy/science fiction, and mythology.

Omniarch is just getting started, as of spring 2020 they have a fresh self-titled release out on May 8th with plenty more music coming down the pipe. Watch out for them on the live circuit and take your chance to witness a compelling live show that challenges boundaries.
