Needless
The band was founded in the winter of 2004 in Dánszentmiklós, which started as a four-member home project and slowly, by 2014, the project grew into an active team. Their music basically consists of more traditional elements of melodic thrash and death metal interwoven in some places with the oppressive atmosphere of black metal and some progressive elements. All of these are mixed with a mixture of aggression, mythical themes and a nihilistic view of humanity in the lyrics.
On March 21, 2015, they released their first significant release with the title "The Dark Sirit of Ages", already with five members, which received very positive feedback from both critics and the public. After the release, they gave many concerts in the company of bands such as Aggression, Nervosa, Nuclear, Dew-Scented or Flotsam And Jetsam.
After a short break and member change, they came out with their single "Stalkers of Athanasia", which heralded their first LP, "Heresy", which will be released on June 23, 2019. made by the team. It also received a lot of positive criticism both at home and abroad.
Concert realised with the support of Liveurope and Italia Music Export.
