Rest

about

There are at least 5 artists called Rest: 1) Rest are an instrumental rock group from Cork, Ireland. The group's sound has evolved over the course of their existence to incorporate elements of progressive rock, tech-metal, post-rock, doom, black metal and math rock. The groups sound is characterised by intricate harmonised riffs, complex drum patterns, unconventional song structures, a heavy emphasis on dynamics and alternating time signatures. As well as releasing one album and an EP on Limerick independent record label Out on a Limb Records, the band has also toured Ireland and the United Kingdom, sharing stages with the likes of Isis, Cult of Luna, Oxbow, Baroness, Torche, Zu, Red Sparowes and Explosions in the Sky. 2) REST formed in 2014, by wish of the guitar player Alessandro Coos (already active with the post-blackmetal band ASHES OF NOWHERE) to start a crust/blackmetal project with the idea of merging together the semplicity of crust music and the dark side of black metal. Joined by Mattia Revelant on drums, Efis Canu (already singer of the hardcore band INIRA) as vocalist and Marco Zuccolo (already active with the post-hardcore band WHANE) as bass player, the guys recorded in August 2015 their first tracks at Inferi Studio, run by the same Efis Canu. Fierce, through a classic Swedish Boss HM2 Sound, the band's first EP is pure violence and sweat! The album was completed around the beginning of 2016 and displays an amazing artwork by the indie photographer Martin De
