In mid-1997, INFESTUS was made up of Felipe Foti, Neomar Apostol and Edgar Infante. A few months later, Eduardo Mejías joined the ranks of Infestus as the lead singer for playing what at that time was Doom Death Metal.
A set of several songs was composed during the years when the band played several successful concerts in their country and 5 of them were featured on their first demo EP entitled "Infestus" released in 2004.
New shows and new big events happened in the band. , but only during the last few years did they reach a definitive and strong line-up with the participation of Carlos Luis guitar and voice, Óscar Castro guitars, and Carlos Azuaje on drums to share the stage with the only founding member, Felipe Foti on guitars.
After this consolidation of the line-up, new songs were finally composed and this time in English. It meant that the time had come for a new EP, so once again during the winter of 2017 "Dresses of Darkness" was recorded and completed.
Just a few weeks later, the band signs an agreement with the label CLUB INFERNO ENT. thanks to the great interest shown by its boss Francesco Palumbo and in June 2017, "Dresses Of Darkness" was released as a digital EP.
General description:
INFESTUS's music can be defined as Gothic Metal with a mysterious and dark openness to real darkness and anguish. "Dresses Of Darkness" is an EP well balanced between melancholic atmospheres and effective aggressiveness. Both the lyrics and the melodies can catch the listener and take him to a world of sadness and fury already walked by bands like MY DYING BRIDE MOONSPELL, with strong references to the vampiric essence
Here you find a reflection of their thoughts, emotions and philosophies. "Dressed in Darkness" is a journey to the depths of his being, walking through the corridors of his life with atmospheric moments in front of the infernal blasphemy. High-pitched screams, deep growls, melodic moments, and quiet parts create a dramatic tribute to the darkest night.
