Eshtadur seeks to carve its own path through the darkness of black and death metal, blending orchestras and guitars into a singular, crushing sonic identity bound by melodic despair.

Mystical, accessible, heavy, extreme, and hauntingly nostalgic, Eshtadur has unleashed its unparalleled originality upon the world, now poised to captivate the most discerning metalheads from the abyss (those with profound consciousness)…

BIOGRAPHY
ESHTADUR founded in the fall of 2005 by Jorg August releasing the 'Timo Be Timo' Demo with a sound in the vein of Covenant, Dimmu Borgir and Old Man’s Child. Since then, they have released a pair of EP's and a strong four albums. ESHTADUR, meaning the rebellion of angels, can be most closely likened to bands such as Septic Flesh, Behemoth, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Carach Angren, and the like. Like their scene counterparts, the band embodies a deathly melodic atmosphere that reaches into realms of darkness and despair through the decay of humanity. It seeks to rebel, in its darkened way, embracing the abject reality.Their rich touring history includes performances across Colombia, Peru, Mexico, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia. They have shared the stage and toured with Cradle of Filth, Vader, Graveworm, Sepultura, Aborted and Decapitated, last three in Rock Al Parque 2016. Their 2017 release, via Bleeding Music Records, "Mother Gray" is an expression of planetary death and putrefaction. The scathing release saw the band touring 8 countries in Europe through 2018, and then visiting United States for first time for "Gray America Tour" including Mexico. The band has signed latest album "From The Abyss" with Blood Blast Distribution (by Nuclear Blast) and distributed physically by Hateworks (LA).
