OMÊKA – Day of Wrath new single
New Zealand’s Melodic Death/Groove Metal band Omêka released their new single «Day of Wrath». The release was recorded in multiple locations such as Orange Studios, Deny The Sky Studios and Studio Grym. Mixed & Mastered by Zorran Mendonsa.
Omêka is a 5-piece band known for their genre-blending heavy music, ranging from death metal to softer, more tranquil soundscapes. Originally formed as ‘Fall of Them,’ the band rebranded after parting ways with their original frontman to better capture the sound they envisioned. With members from bands like TAINTED, BULLETBELT, and others, Omêka‘s current lineup includes Steve Burt (vocals), Tim Mekalick (rhythm/lead guitar), Jayden Robinson (lead/rhythm guitar, backup vocals), Jesse Heney (bass), and Mo Galloway (drums, samples). Their singles Hikikomori, Degradation, and Day of Wrath have garnered attention, and they’re working toward a full-length release.
Breaking forth out of this hollow shell that’s so dry
Following in the steps of the father of demise
Only the chosen shall open the door
Follow the rites to breach the void
Arcane and sacred known to a few
Long since forgotten recited anew
Strip the flesh from the bones of the 7 who have sinned
Spill the blood of the one who is pure of the soul.
Pierce the skin of the one who was marked upon birth
Now that the tables have turned on me
I will be left here to die alone
Now that the day of wrath dawns on me
Out of the darkness a long fingered claw
Empty black eyes so dead to the world
Wreaking destruction cursing the land
Losing all hope on this day of wrath
Now that the tables have turned on me
I will be left here to die alone
Now that the day of wrath dawns on me
I will be left here to rise again
Breaking out of the chains that have held me here so long
Rise above the ashes of mankind and all they’ve lost
In my eyes they are all just cattle
led to the slaughter
The apotheosis of my kind is natural order
