“Subhuman Ataxia is one of the most technically impressive albums I’ve heard in recent memory. It is a combination of heaviness with a large amount of technical work, and just enough groove to peak any metalhead’s interest.” – Bucketlist Music Reviews (Album review Subhuman Ataxia 2015)
“the music behind them is high quality” – Extreme Metal Television (Album review Subhuman Ataxia 2015)

In 2008, from a deep, dark, poorly lit gromitorium, in Calgary, Alberta, a new technical metal band, Statue of Demur was born. Statue Drenched in Jager with a variety of influences, Jake Reimer (Vocals/Bass), Richard Zimmer (Vocals/Guitar) and Mitch Fitz (Drums) came together to foster an intricate combination of many styles of metal, meticulously fused into a completely unique sound.
A powerful 3-piece band that has been churning out groovy riffs for the last 9 years, Statue of Demur has had the opportunity to share the stage with many bands over the years, including Canadian titans Kataklysm. They have played at Loud as Hell Music Festival, Calgary Metalfest and were the recipients of Album of the Year Award at the 2016 edition of The Calgary Beer Core Awards.
Now in 2017, Statue of Demur continues to deliver an intoxicating mind-fuck melody of tunes with their full-length release Alien Pacific. A concept album touching on extraterrestrial involvement in evolution, and their control over our showdown government, the album is a groovy ride from start to finish. Fitz says, “Without the intention, we wrote a concept album. No tracks were cut for this record, we don’t ever write songs and decide later on that they don’t make it the album. We decide early on, the rough number of tracks that we want for a full length and don’t hit the studio until we reach that number. We have never recorded an EP, and three of your records are full length.”
