Centuries of Decay Biography
Powerful atmosphere and devastating intensity. These two elements are at the core of what makes Centuries of Decay such a crushingly heavy experience. Formed in 2013, Centuries of Decay have built a reputation in the Toronto metal scene for their uniquely epic, heavy sound and exceptionally tight live shows. Brothers Devin Doucette (Vocals, Guitar), Derrick Doucette (Drums), Rob McAllister (Lead Guitar, Vocals) and Matt Hems (Bass) fuse together brutal down-tuned riffs, shimmering chords, insane drumming and epic melodies. Contrasting heavy and melodic, Dark and triumphant, Centuries of Decay create a unique sound and atmosphere all of their own.
In 2015 the band began work on their debut album which was no small undertaking. Their first effort was produced, recorded, mixed and mastered completely by the band. Finally in 2017, Centuries of Decay released their debut-self-titled album. 'Centuries of Decay' explores the cyclical nature of creation and destruction, history repeating itself. The self-titled track is set against a backdrop of horrific worldwide destruction. Even though civilization is destroyed, nature reclaims the land. From there, the rest of the album recounts the beginnings of social unrest (The Architect), corruption and disillusionment (Asylum, Odyssey) and eventually war (Wings of Death, Rise). The album comes to a close with Demise, a twelve minute epic about the end of days when all is lost.
In 2018, Centuries of Decay competed in the Canadian edition of the Wacken Metal Battle. With a grand prize consisting of a trip to Germany and a slot to play at the Wacken Open Air festival, the band was seasoned and determined.After 4 rounds against some of the best metal bands in Canada, Centuries of Decay returned to Toronto to play against the West Coast Champions. At the end of the night Centuries of Decay were victorious and headed to Wacken Open Air 2018.
