NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – April 14, 2020

For fans of Revocation, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Absence, Arsis, Allegaeon

Edmonton’s OMNIARCH Premiere Single ‘Pathfinder’ via NoCleanSinging

Debut Album Out May 8th 

Canada’s Omniarch have unleashed their second single ‘Pathfinder’ from their debut self-titled album that is scheduled for release on May 8, 2020.

The album itself, as the band suggests, is a vastly differing and unique journey through history, mythology, imagination, and learning through introspection and reflection. The seven tracks are a composite of progressive and technical death metal, played by five seasoned musicians that bring an eclectic set of skills to the band.

‘Pathfinder’ is a track about personal honesty, about feeling what you love, doing what you love, and being who you truly are. The band explains their expectations of the album and hopes for listeners reception:

“It is suitable for fans of aggressive, progressive and technical metal music, it is something new, but still within the realms of what we know and love. Our debut release is our full, headlining set, and plays great in the order of the album”

Recommended for anyone with an interest in melodic, technical, relentless death metal especially fans of The Black Dahlia Murder, The Absence, and Arsis.

Listen to ‘Pathfinder’ via its premiere on NoCleanSinging HERE.

About:
Omniarch was formed from the ashes of two former bands, Netherward and This is War. Morgan Lambert (guitar), Mason Wilson (guitar), Jon Hofmann (bass), Mackenzie LaHaye (vocals), and  Henry Giesbrecht (drums) who had played gigs together in separate bands, had always entertained the idea of joining forces. Eventually, conditions allowed for the amalgamation of the two bands into a new and wholly different alloy of metal and formed the beginning of Omniarch.

Giesbrecht, the original drummer, added a new dynamic to the band with his fresh approach to metal song structures. Eventually, Giesbrecht moved on and made way for Sean Higgins to step in and make his own indelible mark on the band with his nuanced sense of rhythm and pace. The disparate and yet congruous influences have come together to showcase a truly unique and exciting band, full of opportunity.

Each Omniarch song starts with a collaboration between Wilson and Lambert to determine the riffs, which are then brought to the rhythm section where they are morphed into a  cohesive idea that is splattered with aggressive technical death metal vocals with themes surrounding history, fantasy/science fiction, and mythology.

Omniarch is just getting started, as of spring 2020 they have a fresh self-titled release out on May My 8th with plenty more music coming down the pipe. Watch out for them on the live circuit and take your chance to witness a compelling live show that challenges boundaries.

Edmonton’s OMNIARCH New Single ‘Ohm Cairn’ Off Upcoming Debut Album Out May 8th

Edmonton’s Omniarch are set to release their debut self-titled album on May 8, 2020. Melodic, technical and relentless, the Canadian act is refining the chaos of death metal and adding intricate technicalities.

The first single off the debut is ‘Ohm Cairn’, a savage journey of 6-string delights and aggressive melodies. Omniarch has been toiling away on this album and is excited to show off their handiwork to local and international fans. The album is a vastly differing and unique journey through history, mythology, the imagination, and learning through introspection and reflection and the single tells the tale of the Omniarch, his rise to power and omnipotent rule.

They have cast their net wide and expect to entice fans across the metal spectrum, in their own words:

“It is suitable for fans of aggressive, progressive and technical metal music, it is something new, but still within the realms of what we know and love. Our debut album is our full, headlining set, and plays great in the order of the album.”

Any fans of technical and progressive death metal will find comfort in the blasting sounds of Omniarch, especially those who like Revocation, Inferi, and The Black Dahlia Murder.

‘Ohm Cairn’ is streaming via its premiere on GhostCultMag HERE.

Omniarch – Self-Titled (2020)

For fans of Revocation, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Absence, Arsis, Allegaeon

Label: Self-Release
Distribution: Self-Release

Spotify | Apple Music

“Omniarch come our way from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and they don’t come timidly. Their formulation of technical and progressive death metal absolutely blazes with exuberant spirit, technical virtuosity, and turbocharged energy, while incorporating memorable melodic and atmospheric accents. It’s the kind of music that will likely find welcome among fans of such bands as Revocation, Inferi, and The Black Dahlia Murder. ” – No Clean Singing

“Fire and fury with a really strong technical edge, Omniarch live and breathe their metal, choking all who share the same space…. Ursa Major is one hell of a closer. The drums and guitars taking the mood down to dark places, the vocals the sound of hellish noise in the shadows. Then out of the blue the band throw out an absolute beast of a guitar solo. It’s momentously heavy stuff.” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“Ohn Cairn is brutal, death metal with shredding solos, and some cool melodic moments!” – Ghost Cult Mag

“The Canadian crew combines a technical and melodic sound not many newer bands achieve these days and it’s rather impressive.” – Technical Music Review

“It’s technical and progressive, and highly skilled” – Metal Temple

“Fierce, technical, melodic, catchy and mostly unpredictable , “Omniarch” is an excellent disc signaling the entrance of another dragon in the technical melodic death/thrash genre should such ever be defined. Recommended.” – Eternal Terror

“Technical Death Metal is the order of the day when it comes to Omniarch and that marks something of a style shift from the two bands who created this one. As the track titles suggest, each song is a vastly differing and unique journey through history, mythology, imagination, science fiction, and learning through introspection and reflection. Each member of the band brings his own energy as is a seasoned professional when it comes to the musicianship which is something that shines through from the very start of the record.” – Metal Noise

“Omniarch have furnished us all with an excellent record.” – Wicked Metal Review 

“Ohm Cairn hit the pit slam sweat and just get your aggression out.” – Ripple Music

“an ambitious Melodic Death Metal act that are clearly reaching for an individual sound on their self-titled debut.” – The Metal Crypt

“Fans of The Black Dahlia Murder would very likely enjoy this band. The tech-metal and the shred aficionados are potential new fans. This is a good example of the post-2010 North American extreme metal sounds.” – Metal Bulletin

“What Omniarch have in their favour is some absolutely excellent songwriting and riffwriting at their disposal. The songs are energetic, rampant with exciting lead work and interesting complexities.” – The Killchain Blog

“a very well rounded tech death record, Omniarch strike a chord between melodic death metal and a complex stream of technical instrumentation. It’s heavy as hell naturally, but the blasts of melody are not to be ignored, accompanied by some very nice clean vocals. The screamed vocals fall into mids, very intense ones that are well performed as well, we can easily make out a lot of the lyrics as well. It’s a very fun, exciting, and brutal listen that any metalhead should dig!” – Zax Record Reviews 

“Bursting at the seams with progressively titled and melodically enhanced technical death distinctiveness, Omniarch’s album of the same name is one hell of a fucking how do you do!  Only formed last year, Omniarch are already beginning to make waves in the tech death sector, so get this killer release in your ears ASAP!  Rating:  9.5 / 10”  – Hated One Metal Reviews

“For a first full-length, Omniarch strikes really hard! Omniarch is an album on which it’s impossible to get bored, regardless we love violence, melodies or technicity. The member’s musical background allow them to naturally combine all their influences.” – Acta Infernalis
