Tides Of Kharon: Greek Mythology and Ice hockey…..

I`m not familiar with the town Edmonton but I definitely have heard about the ice hockey band Edmonton Oilers. Now there are more entertain artist coming from Edmonton! Based out of Edmonton, Alberta Tides of Kharon is a melodic death metal band drawing influence from Greek mythology.

Canadian melodic death metal Tides Of Kharon unveil Atlas Endures, the first video from their upcoming EP, Titanomachy out April 6^th via Sliptrick Records. Telling a tale of betrayal and punishment, the aptly named Atlas Endures is sung from the point of view of Atlas as he is sentenced to hold the sky on his shoulders for all eternity. Lyrically, Atlas Endures is emotionally intense, sharing the character’s heartbreaking acceptance of his unfortunate eternal future, with hopes and dreams being his only escape from the struggle.

To compliment the story, Tides Of Kharon proceed powerfully into the track, which happens to open the album. A dark chord progression layered with syncopated double-bass patterns force goosebumps on the listener, a phenomenon the refuses to relent throughout the song’s movement through verse, chorus and bridge. The latter half of the track features a guitar solo, performed by the band’s newest member, Mike Burton, which adds an elegance to this dramatic, yet hard-hitting opus.

Tides Of Kharon are:

Garrett Nelson – Vocals | Mike Burton – Guitars | Cameron Rehman – Bass | Gord Alexander – Drums.
