Note: Gatherum Castle is the seat of the Duke of Omnium in the 'Palliser' series of novels by Anthony Trollope.
From Wikipedia:Omnium Gatherum is a five-piece melodic death metal band from Finland, founded in the autumn of 1996. According to the word of other musicians and music psychologists/critics, although the band mainly follows the path of melodic death metal genre, the music created by the band, especially the later albums, has a strong feel/presence of other sub-genres, such as black metal and pure death metal.
Despite the fact that the later music created by Omnium Gatherum contains material and various aspects that are typical for black metal genre, the band does not possess any of the visual/appearance features and behaviour, that are characteristic of black metallists.
After releasing four demos, they were signed to Rage of Achilles, then metal giant Nuclear Blast, and are currently signed to Candlelight Records. Rage of Achilles re-released their fourth demo as an EP, Steal the Light, in 2002.
OG have toured in Europe together with bands like Nile, Dark Tranquillity, Entombed, Swallow The Sun, Caliban etc.
Their 2008 album The Redshift was mixed and mastered by renowned producer Dan Swanö (Edge Of Sanity, Hail Of Bullets, Novembers Doom), and released in October 2008 to generally positive reviews and even charting in Finnish official album chart to position #24.
