Terra Odium is a new progressive metal band formed by well-known musicians coming largely from the Norwegian metal scene. The creative force of the band, singer / guitarist Øyvind Hægeland (Spiral Architect, ex-Arcturus, etc.) and guitarist Bollie Fredriksen, played together in Manitou. They joined with drummer Asgeir Mickelson (Veil of Secrets, ex-Ihsahn, ex-Borknagar, etc.). They then decided to invite none other than Steve Di Giorgio (Testament, Death, etc.) to complete the line-up. Jon Phipps (Dragonforce, Moonspell, ANGRA, etc.) was also brought in to add synths.
The band released a video for The Clouded Morning, the first single from the upcoming debut album Ne Plus Ultra which will be released on June 11, 2021 via Frontiers Music srl.
