About
Opaque Mass started in the 90s as a metal band that did a few live shows performing death and black metal covers before dissolving without much rumor. 25 years later, the founding member and lead guitarist noticed how events unfolding in the world such as the Arab Spring and the corona pandemic incited behaviour in people that reminded of "Mankind's destructive nature", as Bolt Thrower put it at the end of their track Through the Ages. Inspired by this and with the love for 90s death metal still very much alive, the concept for Bulwark was born, and with it Opaque Mass was reborn as the fitting entity for this endeavour, this time as a solo act. Every track refers to an aspect of the overarching theme: how intolerance isolates people, poisons civil discourse and ultimately destroys civilization.
