Bio
Altars is an Australian death metal band from Melbourne, known for their dense, dissonant, and relentlessly heavy approach to extreme music. Formed by musicians connected to acts such as Ignivomous, Convulsing, and StarGazer, the project brings together members of Australia’s underground extreme metal scene. Their sound blends old-school death metal brutality with modern dissonance and atmospheric unease, often shifting between crushing blast-driven intensity and slower, more suffocating, doom-leaning passages. Across releases like *Paramnesia* (2013) and *Ascetic Reflection* (2022), Altars have developed a reputation for creating bleak, chaotic, and sonically overwhelming compositions that emphasize texture, mood, and extremity over traditional structure
