ODG166 : BTH / Before The Holocaust
Kraut Metal from Brussels and outer space!
tlhIngan maH! - we are Klingons!
BTH is a small group of humans that miraculously escaped from planet Klingon where they were held prisoners by that fierce extra-terrestrial race that is well-known by Star Trek fans.
BTH has a mission: warn humanity of an impending holocaust orchestrated by hordes of Klingons determined to destroy all forms of human life on earth.
After years of brain-washing and isolation in outer-space Klingon prisons, BTH will try to voice its waring in Klingon language only.
To carry his message of despair, hate and destruction, BTH decided to opt for the most adequate music genre: a skillful, brutal and lo-fi mix of Kraut Noise Rock/Math Death Metal.
In spite of Covid-19 pandemic and other minor inconveniences, BTH came to existence two years ago. Today, they are releasing their first album Before the Holocaust.
BTH is Marc B. (bass), Fabrice D. (violin), Joël P. (drums), Raphaël R. (guitar) and Roland W. (voice and sound design). All of them are or have been part of mythical bands of the Belgian underground music scene: Martien Go Home!, von Stroheim, Noise Gate, keiki…
The album’s artwork is taken from Olivier Legrain’s painting Goodbye America. The album was mixed by Jérémy Trossat.
