As a death metal band, Fleshgod Apocalypse have a style which is nothing short of theatrical. No, operatic. Their performances are lavish, experimental and, above all, entertaining. The group performs to arenas full of fans looking for a memorable night, and this band certainly doesn’t disappoint.
Smoke jets, masked support singers, aging pianos and antiquated costumes all add a gothic creepiness to Fleshgod Apocalypse’s intense sound, but it in no way detracts from the band’s main draw: their music. Just one listen to their songs and you can tell that this band has worked hard to perfect their specific sound and the music they make. In fact, Fleshgod Apocalypse was brave enough to leave their first record label before the release of any major work because they wanted to grow and maintain their artistic integrity as a band.
A Fleshgod Apocalypse show delivers entertainment left, right and centre. Their setups are attention grabbing and their performances show-stopping. At a recent show they opened with “The Hypocrissy” and the audience looked like they were about to self-combust; such is the effect of Fleshgod Apocalypse on their fans. If you like death metal, you’ll love Fleshgod Apocalypse – I recommend that you catch them live soon.
