Heute lassen ASCEND THE HOLLOW mit ihrem schonungslosen Cyber Tech Metal Album die finsteren „Echoes Of Existence“ widerhallen
ASCEND THE HOLLOW entführen den Hörer mit zehn brachialen wie intensiven Songs ihres Debüts „Echoes Of Existence“ in ihre atemberaubende Cyber Metal Welt. Die Musik auf dem am 07.06.2019 über Dr. Music Records weltweit erscheinenden Album wird angetrieben von 9-saitigen Gitarren, 6-saitigen Bässen und modernen elektronischen Klanglandschaften. Abgerundet wird das Ganze durch eine vielfältige Mischung aus Grunts, Screams und einer melancholischen, klaren Stimme. Vor einigen Wochen verwandelten sich ASCEND THE HOLLOW aus der Asche der Band Xerosun in die neue Metamorphose. Dabei sind sie furchtlos und heftig, kraftvoll aufgestiegen, wiedergeboren worden und haben die Verantwortung für die eigene Neuerfindung übernommen. Sie sind die Kraft, die in jedem von uns schlummert. Sie geben nicht auf und akzeptieren kein Versagen. Sie haben die Macht, aus dem Nichts aufzusteigen und zur Sonne zu greifen. Mit ihrem Album-Teaser gewährt die Female Fronted Progressive Cyber Tech Metal Band einen finsteren Einblick in ihr Debütalbum „Echoes Of Existence“: https://youtu.be/SauKMix9Kxo
Bestehend aus M-NOISE (Vox, Texte), RAVEN (Gitarren, Programmierung), GEF (Gitarren, Programmierung) und DAVEC (Bass), kombinieren ASCEND THE HOLLOW ihre eklektischen Einflüsse zu einem kraftvollen, aggressiven und doch melodisch eindringlichen und innovativen Sound. Zum Teil produziert von Kris Norris (Darkest Hour, Scar The Martyr, Shadow Domain) sowie gemischt und gemastert von Thomas ‘Drop’ Betrisey (Samael, The Erkonauts, Sybreed) sorgt „Echoes Of Existence“ bereits jetzt für einigen Wirbel in der Szene! In die MRC30 Metal/Rock Charts sind sie eingestiegen, ihre Songs laufen bei zahlreichen Metal Radioshows über den Äther und folgende Pressestimmen haben uns auch schon erreicht:
- She-Wolf.eu: […] Eine außerordentlich genial umgesetzte Fusion aus elektronischen Synthesizern und einer ordentlichen Rezeptur aus Technical Metal. […] Trotz der innovativ ausgearbeiteten Song-Ideen, sind ASCEND THE HOLLOW nicht Müde, den Tracks eine ordentliche Portion Sound-Variation (bemerkbar an den Synths) zuzufügen und erschaffen somit ein Full-Length Album, das weder belanglos dahinplätschert, sondern tatsächlich Spaß macht immer wieder angehört zu werden. Man ist schon direkt gespannt, welche Überraschung ASCEND THE HOLLOW als nächstes aus dem Hi-Fi System schleudern.
- Metal-Observer.com: At this point I feel I really need to make a statement that the aim of this album is not just brutality. They show a lot of maturity and that comes through in a very dark and genuinely disturbing concept. […] like a soundtrack to a post-apocalyptic, sci-fi movie, delivering the image of a futuristic, highly mechanized desolate and sickening world. […]To tell you the truth, I felt genuinely shaken by this album. If you know what the songs are about and you allow yourself to properly get immersed into it, it makes you tick in a really dark way. It’s seriously innovative in its sound and incredibly expressive. With “Echoes of Existence” the band has put together a somber and penetrating theatre of dark energies and vivid pictures. So just know before playing this album that you’ve never heard anything like it before.
- ÜberRock.co.uk: “Echoes Of Existence” is a dark and forbidding album, but one which also shines a light for the redemption that addressing, and defeating, the darkness which surrounds us in everyday life. It is also a very powerful Heavy Metal album, which succeeds on almost every level […] with this incisive and powerful debut, ASCEND THE HOLLOW have laid down a very clear marker which should help them to finally garner some of the attention they most definitely, and defiantly, deserve, especially in their homeland, if not the wider Überverse.
- Black Phoenix Rising Metal Forum: A super super classy album, a must for any Metal fan, that likes their music heavy, a bit extreme and different.

Today ASCEND THE HOLLOW let the dark “Echoes Of Existence” resound with their relentless Cyber Tech Metal album
With ten brutal and intense songs of their debut “Echoes Of Existence” ASCEND THE HOLLOW take the listener into their breathtaking Cyber Metal world. The music on the album, which will be released on June 7th, 2019 worldwide through Dr. Music Records, is driven by 9-string guitars, 6-string basses and modern electronic soundscapes. The whole thing is rounded off by a diverse mixture of grunts, screams and a melancholic, clear voice. A few weeks ago ASCEND THE HOLLOW emerged from the ashes of the band Xerosun into the new metamorphosis. They have been fearless and fierce, rose strongly from the ashes, were reborn and took responsibility for their self-reinvention. They are the power that lies dormant in every one of us. They do not give up and do not accept failure. They have the power to ascend the hollow and reach towards the sun. With their album teaser the Female Fronted Progressive Cyber Tech Metal band gives a dark insight into their debut album “Echoes Of Existence”: https://youtu.be/SauKMix9Kxo
ASCEND THE HOLLOW, consisting of M-NOISE (vox, lyrics), RAVEN (guitars, programming), GEF (guitars, programming) and DAVEC (bass), combine their eclectic influences to a powerful, aggressive yet melodically intrusive and innovative sound. Partially produced by Kris Norris (Darkest Hour, Scar The Martyr, Shadow Domain) as well as mixed and mastered by Thomas ‘Drop’ Betrisey (Samael, The Erkonauts, Sybreed) “Echoes Of Existence” is already causing a stir in the scene! They have entered the German MRC30 Metal/Rock Charts, their songs have airplay on numerous Metal radio shows and the following press quotes have already reached us:
- She-Wolf.eu: […] An extraordinarily ingeniously produced fusion of electronic synthesizers and a proper dose of Technical Metal. […] Despite the inventive song ideas, ASCEND THE HOLLOW are not tired of adding a good portion of sound variation (noticeable on the synths) to the tracks and thus create a full-length album, that doesn’t sound boring, but actually is fun to be listened to on and on again. It’s already exciting to see which surprise ASCEND THE HOLLOW will blast next out of the speakers.
