OMEGA DIATRIBE was founded in 2008. So far, they have released two singles and one EP, as well as self-released album “Iapetus” in 2013. Ideologically in the lyrics, the band is moving esoteric theories about relationships between terrestrials and aliens.

The music on “Trinity” is aggressive and original. It has little to do with traditional genres of brutal music like Death Metal or Thrash Metal. However, the influence of modern Hardcore is audible. Each of the instrumentalists presents a high level and plays differently. The bass is very marked, resonant and often it is like in trance. One guitarist plays rhythmically and sharply on the strings. The other one creates sounds that I would describe as spatial and mysterious. This is complemented by a very professional drummer. The screamer of the band puts a lot of heart into their singing, which is similar to that used in Hardcore. In addition, in several places were used prepared, spoken vocals, as well as sparing electronics.

The songs are dominated by aggression, but they have atmospheric insertions and moments of calm. The Track “Oblation” and the last one “Tukdam” are short and entirely moody. The music is very strong and at the same time melodious, in places with a trance. These various elements create a complete message. There are very audible enhance and rich use of the bass, which is rarely happens. The compositions are immersive and full of drama, abundant in musical qualities. They impress the listener.

Maybe it just seems to me, but I hardly know Groove Metal, but the Hungarian quintet has its own distinctive style. Among the fans of underground creativity, there is the concept of “gay metal”. And “Trinity” is not extreme black-thrash from garage, but it’s definitely not “gay metal” (I apologize LGBT organizations). I would say that Magyars create a sonic brutality for an intelligent listeners.
