The Chasm

Among Mexico’s esteemed and imitated rock rings, the Chasm was formed in 1993 by ex-Cenotaph vocalist/guitarist Daniel Corchado alongside guitarist Erick Diaz, bassist Luis Martinez, and drummer Antonio León. After releasing its career using the Awaiting your day of Liberation demonstration, the music group proceeded to show its unique combination of violent loss of life and ambient dark metal with some increasingly primary and achieved albums: 1994’s limited-edition Procreation from the Internal Temple, 1995’s epic In the Shed Years, and 1997’s Deathcult for Eternity…The Triumph. For this period, Corchado briefly lent his providers to American loss of life metal experts Incantation, after that relocated to Ohio with León in tow, as soon as there rebuilt the Chasm from the bottom up using brand-new associates Julio Viterbo (electric guitar) and Alfonso Polo (bass). Getting a record label with their preference was no easy job, however the bandmembers ultimately signed with unbiased Dwell Information for 2000’s acclaimed Procession towards the Infraworld — and then start to see the label move bankrupt almost instantly. Largely as a result of this, 2001’s Achieving the Veil of Loss of life EP and the next year’s Conjuration from the Spectral Empire had been self-released affairs, however the band’s next record, 2004’s The Spell of Retribution, would emerge through Earache subsidiary Witches Brew.
