Ceremony of Opposites Official

Ceremony of Opposites was formed in 2005 by As, Pascal and Marcel. The name Ceremony of Opposites was chosen because it shows the different personalities and musical taste of the bandmembers and has nothing to do with the album by Samael. Sander Jacobs was recruited as the drummer and in September 2005 the demo “The Fear Within” was recorded. At the end of 2006 the band re-entered the studio to record the first full length CD, called “Death’s Dominion”. The style of the band is death-metal combined with influences from a.o. thrash-, viking- and black metal. In the songs you can hear the love the bandmembers have for bands like Cannibal Corpse, Vader, Amon Amarth and Arch Enemy. “Death’s Dominion” is a step forward in the musical development of the band. No more clean vocals and stepping up the pace, without loosing the melodic aspect in the music. In January 2009 the EP “Seeds of Resurrection” has been recorded. The CD as well as the demo were supported by a lot of live shows. Ceremony of Opposites is well known for their energetic live shows and interaction with the audience. One of the highlights was the band’s performance at the Metalcamp-festival 2008 in Slovenia. Ceremony of Opposites has shared the stage with a.o. Obituary, Rotting Christ, God Dethroned, After Forever, Born from Pain, Hail of Bullets, Sinister, Torture Squad, Trail of Tears, Arch Enemy, Iced Earth and Morbid Angel. .:: Dutch Death Metal ::.
