Hailing from Finland, Omnium Gatherum is a band playing fierce death metal with breathtaking melodies and progressive originality for people in the metal field looking for something different but still catchy. The moods and emotions swirling in the midst of the OG cauldron are the result of the good chemistry between the strong individuals and of course the countless hours on the road and in the studios during the years.
Formed in 1996, so far Omnium Gatherum have released five albums and one ep (on Nuclear Blast Records, Candlelight Records and Rage Of Achilles) and have gathered a massive dose of praising feedback among the metal communities and medias with its every release and has also visited the official Finnish top-30 album chart with previous two albums. Latest albums have conducted the band to tour Europe alongside with bands like Dark Tranquillity, Nile, Grave, Entombed, Caliban, Swallow The Sun, Insomnium etc.
