The Amenta are an Industrial Death Metal band from Australia. They evolved from a black metal band known as Crucible of Agony, changing their name to The Amenta in 2001. Over their career their musical style has shifted noticeably; the band’s first album Occasus, released in 2004, was noticeably more influenced by blackened death metal, while in later releases the band’s industrial element has become more prominent.

The band released their debut album Occasus in 2004. The lineup on the recording was Cessium 137 (vocals; real name Mark Bevan), Ethion (guitars; real name Erik Miehs), Endrin (bass; real name Dale Harrison), Diazanon (drums; real name Dave Haley (also of Psycroptic)) and Chlordane (keyboards and programming; real name Timothy Pope). Joe Haley from Psycroptic toured with the band as a second guitarist during this era. Cessium left the band in 2006 and was replaced by Jarrod Krafczyk. Robin Stone also became the band’s drummer at some point in this period, likely due to Haley’s other committments.

In 2008, the new lineup of the band (Krafczyk, Miehs, Harrison, Stone and Pope) released the album n0n, now using their real names. n0n also featured guest appearances from Nergal of Behemoth, Alice Daquet of Sir Alice and Jason Mendonca of Akercocke, among others.

Krafczyk and Harrison left the band in 2009. The current lineup of the band, as of 2011, is:

i agree, i was skeptical of the new vocalist and Nihil was always my favourite song from the amenta but he did such an amazing job with that song and somehow made it better than the original(imo) i hope they do more songs similar to that one.

Occasus-->nOn--------------->>>>>>V01D=>Shit. V01D is their weakest effort, I hope their next LP will me much more similar to Occasus and the new age of cold, industrial extremity will be risen

no re-recording sounds anywere near as good as the old versions. -> I agree at 100%, i hate when bands do that. Anyway the EP is anything but awful, but it doesn't sound like The Amenta. Where are the inhuman blast beats and the cold rage that made Occasus and n0n so great? ._.

Cain is unreal! ..& if they wanted to change the original tracks I say FUCK YEAH - do what you want! They're giving it away for free for fucks sake. You're obviously going off the band if you think that this evolution sucks..

Both Mark and Jarrod fits The Amenta better than Cain IMO. And I don't get why they have re-recorded their old songs, no re-recording sounds anywere near as good as the old versions. Do yourselfs a favor and spin Occasus or nOn instead of V01D and you'll see the good sides of this band
