Ektomorf, “Whisper”, released December 2014 on AFM Records.
Bio
Ektomorf was founded in ’94, by vocalist/guitarist Zoli Farkas, in Hungary, Mezõkovácsháza. The band has taken a long road to its way to succeed: after releasing 3 records and touring around in Hungary for many years, Ektomorf took the chance to go international, bringing their heavy grooves and harsh lyrics for all the people around the globe. The mix of thrash, hardcore and traditional gipsy music got recognized by many, and success was provided by their legendary energetic and destructive stage performances – which made Ektomorf not only the most famous Hungarian metal act, but also one of the leading artist in their genre. Signed by Nuclear Blast, producing their hit albums like “Destroy”, “Instinct” and “Outcast” it was proven that Ektomorf can’t go wrong with their powerful, groovy style, and kept on walking the same line while adding more melodies and traditional acoustic elements, proving their critics that there’s a next level to elevate to. After changing record label and getting signed by AFM Records the band released their 2010 recording “Redemption”, which was another relentless manifestation of the monster what’s being fed by anger, hate and social criticism, with a touch of human soul.
As part of their passion project, and searching for something unusual, they’ve produced one of the most interesting record, which showed a rarely known side of the band – ’The Acoustic’ presented a surprise for the fans of groove metal by being an experimental album consisting covers, new and old songs written and re-recorded “unplugged”.
