Yes! Its true! After almost two years from their break up, the Greek groove/death/grind band Homoiratus are finally back to kick some serious ass! During the past two years, most of them enrolled in other projects/bands and now that they reunited they are ready to bring the Greek death metal scene onto a higher level.
Whats really interesting is the current line up of the band So we have Mitch on vocals, Angelos on bass, Argy on drums and Kostas on guitars Homoiratus first guitarist. However, theres also another member on guitars who recently joined the band, Kostas. During the past two years following the break up of Homoiratus, Angelos, Argy and the bands new member, Kostas, formed God of Rotors and this is how they initially decided to include Kostas in the current line up of Homoiratus.
Line up:
Mitch vocals (Human Consumes Human)
Angelos bass (Human Consumes Human, Knowledge Their Enemy, Apocalypse)
Argy drums (Absence of Progress, Human Consumes Human, Knowledge Their Enemy, Apocalypse)
Kostas guitars (Absence of Progress)
Kostas guitars (new member, God of Rotors, Sklerotikz)
The band is currently trying out some ideas for new tracks and at the same time they are rehearsing older ones. All this indicates that Homoiratus will soon record a new album, which according to what is stated on their official page on myspace is most likely to pick up back at Human Consumes Human and they will most probably at some point go on tour, both in Greece and abroad. However, the band hasnt made any binding statements regarding the time when all this will happen, but when it does, they will definitely give us what weve been craving for!
A bit of biographical info for those not acquainted with the band.
