EPHEL DUATH mastermind Davide Tiso has launched a brand-new label imprint through Code666 Records, dubbed Amaranth Recordings.

 Album Review EPHEL DUATH-Rephormula :: Maelstrom :: Issue No 9
While the musicianship and technicality is indeed impressive, Ephel Duath, in its effort to make something really dense, has lost sight of the idea that writing enjoyable music is paramount to succeeding as a band.
So Ephel Duath gets an honorable mention for effort and execution, but failing marks for presentation.
Incidentally: In case you happen to have a digipaked album by this band and for some reason want more, be warned that Rephormula is merely a repackaging of that album (with some really dubious song titles like "The Blow's Rhymers"), plus two remixes and some demo "opera" stuff.

The two genres of progressive and fl metal seldom meet together, but Italy's Ephel Duath is one band where that description is apt, though even that alone doesn't fully describe where they are coming from, or indeed where they might be going.
Formed in 1988 as a two-man studio project, their debut release was Phormula, on the small but up-and-coming Code666 label.
The new album with this lineup, The Painter's Palette, is set for a May/June 2003 release, and early reviews have been exceptional, as Tiso and crew are bent on blowing the doors wide open as far as what is acceptable in extreme metal.
