Tiamat

The roots of Tiamat in Treblinka are a Swedish band formed in 1987. (The name comes from a town Treblinka in Poland where the Nazis set up the first concentration camp to kill Jews in gas chambers). After a few demos the band was about to release his first album Sumerian Cry when they had to hastily change the band name to Tiamat. Sumerian Cry, released by a small English label (CMFT), closely resembles the sound of his contemporaries Stockholm: A Death metal speed varied, inspired in both Slayer and in Autopsy. Some slow passages, reminiscent of Black Sabbath. And timbre "chainsaw" guitar, which was a hallmark of Sunlight TUDIES. With a little help from friends Unleashed, the group moves to Century Media and launches The Astral Sleep. Right away we see that the second album sound changes are radical. The sound is now much pulled Metallica and Celtic Frost. Nor do we see the blast beats and satanic themes of yore. We now also the constant presence of guitars and keyboards, giving a more intimate atmosphere and "sophisticated" than it was before pure bile and aggression. Clouds follows the same path, producing better and more mature songs. A year after launch The Sleeping Beauty, an EP recorded live in Tel-Aviv (Israel). The early peak of his career was Wildhoney, and for a moment was the focus of Century Media (privilege that today belongs to Lacuna Coil). At this time the band toured Europe with Type O Negative, the big name American Gothic Metal. In 1995 it was time they open the tour of Black Sabbath and Motörhead in the United States1.
