BLASPHEMIST is one of the youngest metal bands in austria - the oldest member is 23 years old (young). With their official debutrecord "SHADOWTORNED WORLD" the guys call attention to the fact that they already know how to write and perform rocksolid melo death like their idols IN FLAMES & CO and that also Bach, Beethoven, Wagner, etc. are no strangers for them.The lyrics on “SHADOWTORNED WORLD” scream about personal experiences and generic metal themes from a different point of view. Convincing with an excellent combination of two-part guitar harmonies, very dramatic riffs and a fancy vocal-concept of their two singers, BLASPHEMIST add a fresh and keen sound to the wide range of Melodic Death Metal. That record, which was recorded in summer 2011 in Noiseheadstudios and produced by Mario Jezik promises modern Metal at its finest!

The main goal of Eyes of Eternity is to be something different of what we are used for. It is something really hard to describe with a few words, because it is an hybrid of many music styles. It alternates some melodic and epic parts, very keyboard-based with others extreme, angry and violent sounding much more hardcore, which fits perfectly with the lyrics concept. All the album is based on the death, the eternal mystery, the primal fear of the mankind, but also something fascinating and desired. In Eyes of Eternity every song is different from each other, but everything always has a sense: it is a 360° travel between life and death, past and future.
