Ephel Duath is an Italian progressive metal band, formed in 1998 in Padova, Italy.

Biography

Ephel Duath was formed in 1998 as a two-man group and taking their name after the fictional location of the same name in J.R.R. Tolkien's book The Lord of the Rings. Their debut release was Phormula, on the Code666 record label. Following Phormula's release, they signed to Elitist Records (a sub-division of Earache), and repackaged the debut with demo tracks, releasing it in 2001 as Rephormula. Forming a new lineup, founder Davide Tiso recruited a diverse set of musicians for the band, hailing from backgrounds in hardcore punk, jazz, blues, funk, and progressive rock. The first album with this lineup was 2003's The Painter's Palette. The Painter's Palette showcases an unorthodox combination of hardcore punk and jazz fusion.cite web | url = http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:3xfexqealdae | title = The Painter's Palette | work = Allmusic | accessdate = May 21 | accessyear = 2007] A new album, Pain Necessary To Know , was released in late 2005. After the recording of this album, drummer Davide Piovesan quit the band, and was replaced in 2006 by Sergio Ponti. Ephel Duath later dismissed bassist Fabio Fecchio, the band explained "Ephel Duath have become a trio. In order to explore more experimental music dimensions".

The band are currently recording a new album release titled 'Through My Dog's Eyes' with studio drummer Marco Minnemann. Dillinger Escape Plan's Ben Weinman composes 'electronics' on the song 'Bark Loud'.
