Opus Däi (pronounced “die”) cultivates a rich and varied aural landscape that is as vast and epic as the bands history. The band creates a space where diverse sounds blend into a singular musical force. Driving and aggressive, yet gentle in spirit, there is an epic grace that stokes the fires burning brightly from within Opus Däi. Drawing on influences from Led Zeppelin and Jeff Buckley to Tool and The Mars Volta, Opus Däi weave a broad musical tapestry. Painting a picture with superlative musicianship and beautifully crafted songs. This is the hallmark of the newly formed, yet years in the making, Los Angeles based band.
With over 500 shows under their belt, Opus Däi has come a long way since the band formed. Like individual rivulets of water edging their way to a common sea, the history of Opus Däi is a journey that began several years ago with the formation of L.A.s noted multi-ethnic, world music influenced O.H.M. With diverse cultural backgrounds and inspirations, the four members of Opus Däi rose from the ashes of O.H.M. to meet at a common center. Distorted Hendrix-like guitars exist alongside soaring vocals and urgent drums to create a potent mix of melody, ferocity and honesty few bands deliver all at once.
After releasing a five-song EP entitled “Actum Procul” (recorded live at the Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood) in late 2005, Opus Däi quickly became a must-see live band with a diverse and loyal following, having shared the stage with System of a Down, Dredg, Linkin Park, Fair to Midland, The Apex Theory and Sevendust to name just a few.

I'm sad. Old vocalist was infinately better. Disappointed by the new EP. Would have been awesome if they had kept the old vocal style. Never mind
