Formed in 1998 and drawing their initial inspiration from bands such as ABRUPTUM, HAVOHEJ, SAMAEL and SUNNO))), T.O.M.B’s lineup of No-One, B. Zimimay, Tyler B and Samantha Viola have skilfully crafted their own avant-garde style, which is characterised by an eclectic mix of Ambient, Doom, Industrial, Noise and traditional Black Metal.
Dealing with subject matters such as death, paranormal activity and occult practicesn T.O.M.B have used their trademark sound, which is both horrific, and, at the same time, hypnotically spell-binding, to devastating effect on “Thin The Veil”, demonstrating why the band is considered to be one of the top innovators of modern day Black Metal.
“Thin The Veil” is mastered by Tore Stjerna of the Necromorbus Studios in Sweden and features collaborations with musicians such the afore-mentioned Hellhammer on drums and Andy Winter on bass, as well as Craig Smilowski (Ex-IMMOLATION) and Duncan McLaren of VENOM WOLF, along with spoken necromancy spells recited by Maurice De Jong (“Mories” of GNAW THEIR TONGUES).
With artwork by the underground occult artist Paul Barton, tracklisting for “Thin The Veil” is as follows:
- No Return
- Where the Wretched Lurk
- Pestilence
- Invocation
- Thin the Veil
- Decapitation of the Gods
