Description
CRESCENT was formed in 1998 by Ismaeel Attallah and Amr Mokhtar in Cairo, Egypt. It started as a Black Metal band influenced by the Swedish Black Metal scene. They released their first demo ''Dreamland'' in 1999, making it one of the oldest heavy bands of its kind in the region. In the following years, CRESCENT shifted towards a more Melodic Black / Death Metal sound with a murderous old school Death Metal vibe. This sound, mixed with ethnic musical influences is reflected in the 2009 EP ''The Retribution''.In 2014, the band released their full-length debut 'Pyramid Slaves', focusing on Ancient Egyptian history/mythology, which marked the band's complete transformation towards Black/Death Metal infused with Egyptian elements. In the following years, CRESCENT was booked to major Metal festivals such as Wacken Open Air, Inferno Metal Festival, Fall of Summer festival among others . CRESCENT 's much anticipated second full-length ''The Order of Amenti'' shows more emphasis on the blackened death Metal thematic atmospheres while maintaining its primordial Egyptian Death Metal essence.
