Genres

Formed in '98 by four persons in order to create Death Metal. Kaamos rehearsed and created 3 songs that ended up on a promo-cassette in the following year. Dauthus released 2 of them on a limited 7" that soon reached a cult/collectors item status. With this effort Kaamos officially entered the scene. The same year came to see bassist/singer Johan's departure from the band and a replacement was found in Karl.

The cursed year of '00 called for blood, sweat and blasphemy when Thomas, the original drummer called it quits. The hunt for a new drummer spewed forth Chris Piss that took charge of the battery. The writing process manifested in five new songs. And "Curse of Aeons" as the demo came to be called, was recorded during a weekend in studio SubSonic and released in early '01. This demo spawned several offers from labels and Kaamos finally choose to sign with Candlelight.

In November '01 Kaamos once again entered SubSonic to record th e debut album. With the aid of Messiah Marcolin and ten days, nine tracks were put down and released in May '02. The album, self-titled as tradition holds, was received very well and Kaamos embarked on the swamp that is called record market. Throughout 02-03 the band focused on live massacre that took them across the borders and initiated them into several countries in Europe. Alongside with this, new material was forged.

March '04 saw the abomination Kaamos entering Berno studio and ten new songs were put on tape. "Lucifer Rising" as the second album will be called is scheduled for release during February 2005 on Candlelight/PHD. Meanwhile, Kaamos continue their live massacres, and the spreading of Darkness and Heresy proceeds.
