(UK) METAL Driven by a passion for music, Promethium are bringing back old school Metal with a 21st century twist through enigmatic song writing and powerful, energetic live shows. Promethium are the by-product formed from the remaining residue of five band meltdowns in Lancaster. A volatile reaction to the tired Thrash which predominated the cities scene, our five intrepid heroes compounded to serve up Heavy music for the purists of metallurgical alchemy.Promethium create a tense interaction of classic instrumentation and emotive vocals. Restrained clean guitar tones gently simmer and bring raw melodic vocals to boiling point before they suddenly erupt with distortion and compel the singer to chemically react, overflow and burn the mic. In a controlled condition, and with tasteful, seasoned precision, the drums and bass infuse these opposing elements. The loud, rocking results are Promethium; a great stress relief. Influences come from typically old school metal, drawing on bands like Annihilator, Savatage, Anthrax, and Iron Maiden but we also sneak in other influences like Deftones, Korn and Rage Against the Machine.The release of the debut single, follows on from a couple of critically acclaimed, self-released ep’s. For fans of Annhilator, Alter Bridge and Anthrax
