In 2003, the year of the launch of TEXTURES’ debut album Polars, the first reactions start to stream in: “This is the best metal album that’s ever come out of the Netherlands” according to the Dutch music magazine Oor. The standard is set. TEXTURES, once just a promising up-and-coming band from the South of the Netherlands, has now emerged, 3 albums later, as an established name in the worldwide metal scene.

The band’s fourth album Dualism — on the band’s new home Nuclear Blast — is groovier, catchier, and the production even grander than its 2008 predecessor Silhouettes. The band’s trademark mix of expertly crafted brutality, melody, freaky, innovative rhythms and catchy vocals is still intact, with Bart Hennephof and Jochem Jacobs’s expertly crafted sonic… um… textures and the unruly heavy-hitting of drummer Stef Broks creating the perfect metal cocktail. The climaxes of the songs on Dualism have been elevated to a higher level, partially due to the contribution of their new keyboard player Uri Dijk and new frontman Daniel de Jongh (ex-Cilice) who, as far as his sound goes, is every bit the talent as his predecessor Eric Kalsbeek.

IChaos:
I CHAOS is een Nederlandse deathmetal band, actief sinds 2009. Na een zeer goed ontvangen debuut-EP in 2009 is vorig jaar hun debuutalbum “The Human Repellent” uitgebracht, waarmee de band zich definitief aan de top van de Nederlandse deathmetal scene heeft gevestigd! 

“Een van de betere brutal death metalplaten van de laatste tijd.” (AARDSCHOK MAGAZINE)

“Er lopen in Nederland redelijk veel deathmetalbands rond, maar er zijn er maar weinig die zo bruut klinken als I Chaos.” (PODIUMINFO)
