Mysterious band sends EMP label group unlabeled cassette tape

Bands seem to surface in strange ways these days. It has been like this with Supreme Unbeing who surely wanted to receive the recognition of EMP label (the record company of Megadeth bassist David Ellefson) executive Thom Hazaert. He told us how it all happened.

Who stands behind the band named "Supreme Unbeing"?

“I received a strange, unmarked package in the mail one day;  No return address, no information, just a hand recorded cassette tape, with the words “SUPREME UNBEING” written on it. Thankfully, I still own a cassette player, so I put it in, and couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I’m still not entirely sure who the band is, or what I signed (and I think they might actually be cartoons), but once I heard it, I just knew they had to be on EMP. The messages of Zac Red were just too powerful to ignore. And to be honest, it hasn’t left my cassette deck since.”

EMP Founder/Megadeth David Ellefson said, “Who???”, disavowing any knowledge.

Heavy Metal Underdogs also got the first message and thought: It got my attention through the playing around with the riff throughout the whole track duration and it's dark-toned soundshell it's put in.

It also features short segments that make you think it could be a balladesque track but soon reveals it's much heavier content. The end also comes as a surprise. You may think it just goes on like in the previous three minutes but a slight change comes in.

Finally the message beneath the music spotted my interest.

The first message, “You’ll Never Make It” tells a very precise story of the human quest to understand his own existence, from creation through the present. The title “You’ll Never Make It” can be interpreted both pessimistically, as many humans fail to reach outside of the psychological cage we are all fostered into since physical birth, or provocatively, as a challenge for those who will continue to transcend the boundaries of the never-ending struggles of life.

More stuff is on it's way. SUPREME UNBEING is set to release additional messages/singles “Animals”, “Solution” and “Dreaming” to the public in the following months prior to the release of the debut full-length LP “Enter Reality” which is set to release on 10th October 2020.

Next To None announche August 2017 US dates

Next To None are a cool new band that has come up to my screen. They've put out their second album "Phases" these days and I'm discovering their sound step by step. I think they have something with them that could develop heavy music further.

It's not so much if they are prog metal or anything else but in common I feel that the way the band takes it's steps could be something of giving way for a bigger understanding of music in general breaking the chains of limitations of music. Don't waste your time with limitations. If it's music you like and enjoy it's music you like and enjoy. This seems to be the message to me they send out through their sounds. Check it out for yourselves with the song "Pause":
