Higher E.P.



There are at least 2 groups with this name: 1) Kailash in the broader view of things are a metal group constantly hopping between the higher ranks of black metal, death metal and progressive metal keeping an affinity with the avant-garde. The technicality and intensity of their fluctuating rhythmics rivals that of Gorguts complete with the odd saxophone and piano. They released their self-titled debut in 2007. Kailash formed from the ashes of Krom, a similar group that had come themselves from Hastur with the entry of Albione Dipietrantonio in 2002. Krom were comprised of Marco Basili (guitar/vocals), Andrea Basili (drums), Andrea Vacca (bass guitar), and Albione di Pietrantonio (guitar). In early 2003 the fledgeling group released a debut, Krom, following soon with Through the Looking Glass and Spectrum Token Shift. It was self-produced with a limited budget, the first two CDs recorded live (Krom in 6 hours, Through the Looking Glass in just 3 hours). With Spectrum Token Shift however, the group had a higher budget, giving the opportunity to perform professionally, colloborating with Francesco Allulli (sax) and Fabio Recchia (piano); the group had by this time completely changed from the musical tendencies of Hastur. Following Spectrum Token Shift, Albione and Andrea Vacca left the band for different endeavors. By the time of Wind under the Door(2005), the band was Marco Basili (guitars & bass guitar), Andrea Basili (drums) and Gabriel Vittori (vocals). On 2006 Krom changed their name in Kailash. 2) Goa trance act consisted of Tsuyoshi Suzuki & Kristian Thinning (Elysium (DK)). Together they produced three tracks in 1996, all released on Tsuyoshi's Matsuri Productions. Read more on Last.fm.
