Reviews;
“… Xerath are quite possibly one of the most exciting things to come out of the British metal scene for some time.”
-Terrorizer
“Invoking the spirit of Meshuggah, the bombast of Strapping Young Lad and the orchestral theatrics of Dimmu Borgir, while adding a twist of soundtrack-style composition to the mix, the four-piece have created this bomb of a debut that is sure to blow all the competition out of the water. Ones to watch”
- Kerrang
“Xerath sound like the result of a chaotic experiment to produce the ultimate please-them-all 21st century metal band. It’s not hard to imagine the likes of Intrenity and False History being blasted out in huge venues to vast baying crowds”
- Metal Hammer
Fucking excellent album! I was completely blown away with this release! No other band has so well blended a symphonic sound with the underlying djent rhythmic feeling! Solid release guys!
Ah, shix, forgot to add: those images are just fantastic, on both albums! Starring at them while listening 2 that music gives an even deeper experience
This is my best newfound band by far, and I hope you’ll keep at least on that level for as long as hell will stand!
Best wishes from Basingstoke guys!!!!!!
First time i heard your music i was instantly taken by it; you guys are def one of my favorite groups by far! Do you have a place where i can buy directly from you? (cut out the middleman ftw) DO WANT SUPPORT!

Mr. Thompson, my bro & I were chatting to you recently at Mammothfest (the Irish guys). Just wanted to say that you are REALLY SO SO NICE and that the signed CD means the world to me man! Like I said dude at the time I found ye on Last.fm for fans of Meshuggah, Sikth, Fellsilent etc., and when I saw Xerath on the lineup I was so stoked Now that we’re back home in Dublin, I’ve got the album on the ipod, and rock into work every morning with it on. Here’s to increased success for you and the guys, would be much deserved.
Pink Marker’s the way to go!!
Just wanted to say I really like the artwork.
The epic cover is what made me buy this album. I hope ‘II’ will feature a cover as awesome as this one.
The combination of Interlude and False History have been my greatest musical listening pleasure. With those two works of art followed up by Abiogenesis…all I can say is this band is sure to do great things with the metal genre.
Keep up the good work!!
Hoping to hear about II soon, from Chile
hoping for more in the vein of Alterra. Can’t wait for the new album!
I love the music, keep it up
