Biography

Belgium (1993 – present)

Axamenta is a Progressive Melodic Death/Black metal band from Belgium. The current bandmembers are: Tom Van Oosterwijck (Drums), Ian van Gemeren (Guitar, Orchestration and Clean Vocals), Sven Deckers (Guitar), Peter Meynckens (Vocals) and Jeroen Vingerhoed (Bass)
The band was formed in 1993, and their first full album ‘Codex Barathri’ was released in 2002, with Yves Huts (current bass player with Epica) still in the band. In 2006 they released their latest album ‘Ever-Arch-I-Tech-Ture’, which has a more progressive and technical sound and uses orchestra samples instead of keyboards. The mixing of this latest album was done at the well known Fredman Studio in Sweden, and Daniel Gildenlöw from Pain of Salvation appears on it as a guest vocalist.

    So we heard about He Came from the Sun a while ago, but no news since a long time... What's going on?

    Listening to Ever-Arch-I-Tech-Ture again for the first time in a while, I'm still of the opinion that they hadn't nearly reached their potential on that album. There are some true flashes of brilliance brought down by awkward arrangement. That being said, I love heavier bands that properly utilize keyboards, so I still like it quite a lot.

    It's a shame that this band is so unknown... I think alot of the metalheads out there would love their stuff. Aahw well, I'll give their cd's an extra spin then :)

    We'll see what gives. They gave us Ever-Arch-][-Tech-Ture though, as far as I'm concerned they've already paid their debt to society :D I don't know, it could be interesting, something in the vein of Cynic, Coprofago perhaps. Maybe they'll turn to djent!

    I'm not 100% sure, but i heard it from some Belgium guy who sometimes talks with the band. I hope not, but he sounded pretty serius about the jazz thing.
