UMBRAE
Infamous Revelations
Umbrae was formed in the last years of the past century by
young men who needed an escape. Sick and tired of hideous units that defined
the metal scene on their homeland, they decide to take the task themselves and
create a new concept in metal, at least to their tiny piece of earth.
Thus, Macklen Mingura and Ivan Perales begin de-composing
their own music. Shortly after that, and having tested several talents that
didn´t fit in their vision, they ran into Victor Hernandez, former frontman and
moving force behind the legendary Black-Death Metal band named Mortigena, who
agrees to work with them and introduces a new concept of heavier sound in the novel
band. The coin was in the air. Victor also carries with him another crucial
piece for the whole project. He introduces his bandmates to a former Mortigena
bandmate, keyboard rapist Galia Mireles, who gladly accepts the wager and
enters the team. The circle comes full with the addition of Julio Rodriguez on
Bass Guitar, a young lad carrying a wide experience on local bands and a
variety of musical styles that came to solidify what would become UmbraE´s
sound.
After a handful of months at rehearsal, they decide to put
their work on record and enter the gates of DPS Studios, Chihuahua, to record
their first album. Thirteen tracks of moody, yet colorful music which just
barely can be labeled as one single genre. This broad their limits are.
Completely self produced, with no sponsorship whatsoever, they release Infamous
Revelations on CD, on the summer of 2000. Quite a kickoff for the new century.
The record promptly climbed to the first places of popularity in their
hometown, giving the band a name in the metal scene even in nearby cities.
Despite its short quantity (only 150 copies were released, numbered and signed
by the authors) Infamous Revelations reached to places far away from were it
saw the light. Reviews on fanzines all over their country were supportive to
the opus and the Internet also received it with enthusiasm. Three months in a
row in the three first places in the Mexican Metal charts on MP3.Com as well as
several good critics on webzines around the world hailed Infamous Revelations
as a worthy start-up.
Now, almost a year after the initial thrill, UmbraE has
received a few job offers in Metal Labels worldwide. Ready to hit the studio
again, they expect to record their second album before 2001 is gone forever.
Also, it is very possible that a new edition of Infamous Revelations is
released with certainly more than 150 copies. If you are a fan, you can be sure
that you will hear more from this unit. If you are not, uhhh.you will too.
