Biography
Cruciamentum are an English death metal band centred on guitarist Dan Lowndes, the one constant across a slow-moving career defined by long gaps and heavy, cavernous songs. After demos and EPs, the band broke through with 'Charnel Passages' on #Profound Lore Records# in 2015, a debut rated among the finest death metal albums of its decade. A rebuilt line-up, with Chris Eakes, Dan Rochester and Matt Heffner joining Lowndes, delivered the second studio album 'Obsidian Refractions' in 2023, deepening the doom influence without losing the old-school death metal core.
