In 2010, members from buried project The Last, the almighty Minos and Dread Veil came together with a simple goal: to create the music they wanted with no genre restrictions whatsoever. The result was something that had some rhythmical qualities and aesthetics coming from the black metal genre, but paired up with some contrasting melodic influences from genres such as progressive metal, post-rock, doom metal and even a bit of folk. We don't really know what to call it, we just try to call it metal.
The name "Amiensus" is derived from the famous Amiens Cathedral located in Amiens, France. We liked the imagery of the church and the aesthetic qualities the name had when the "-sus" prefix was added.
Our first release: The Last EP, which was mixed by Abigail Williams frontman Ken Sorceron was released early summer of 2010. It mainly covers material written by members of The Last.
Our first full-length: Restoration was released digitally on Bandcamp NYE 2012 and made #5 bestselling metal album that week thanks to a good following. Digipaks for Restoration are OUT NOW and available through our Bandcamp/Pest Productions.
"The Gathering" Split with Oak Pantheon out November 5th, 2013 via Tridroid Records, is a free download on all three parties bandcamps,
Our third album is in the works, as we are undertaking the production again on our own. Aiming for early 2015
