Hailing from Columbus, OH "Equipoise" has mastered the art of Technical Death Metal with their debut album "Demiurgus". Insane shredding like you would never imagine that can shift into smooth Spanish sounding guitar with such an amazing transition that you can't stop listening. I've listened to this album all the way through 5 times, and everytime you go through you find more depth in the beauty of this music. Mixes of Piano, Violin, Guitar (Electric and Acoustic), bass, drums, and insane vocal ranges. While listening the notes take you somewhere else as you try to follow them, a sound I have yet to hear from any other bands in this genre. Multiple talented and hard working dudes coming together to create an album so Technical, I dare say it has re-defined the meaning of Tech Death. Highs, mids, lows, and gutturals, all the things we love on this album, smooth transitioning songs to shreds from hell and crazy blast beats, I can't stop listening. With 3 singles released, CD's, Vinyl's and Shirts ready for Pre-Order, I highly suggest you head over to whatever platform you use and pick up what you can before it's gone.
