Tyrant Throne
Unleashed in 2004 under the name "Canopus" by cousins Zaher Siryani
and Muhannad Bursheh (a.k.a. Phexataan, a member in other well known
bands in the area such as
Augury and
Einherjer Rising) where Muhannad Bursheh takes
charge of battle axe Bass and beastly growls, while Zaher Siryani
mans machine gun Guitars. However, the moniker was changed into
"Tyrant Throne" later the same year.
Work
started directly on their debut EP "Abominations"; the process began
when Zaher Siryani composed a wide number of twisted and upset
riffs, then Muhannad Bursheh followed and added his own touch to the
material creating the bone crushing Brutal Death Metal music they
have become known for. However, in 2005 and 2006, Tyrant Throne
performed a number of live shows which allowed them to build an
excellent and widespread reputation in the local
Metal scene, and
due to that, working on "Abominations" EP got delayed until August
2006.
Despite
the
setbacks they encountered, recording of the EP began in August and
everything was laid down by mid September, unfortunately the
recording process was on standstill yet again as the band's producer
Sirenwave left the country directly after the recording was done;
left with only resourcefulness, Muhannad produced Tyrant Throne's
music himself after three months and proceeded to build his own home
studio, aptly titled as “The Phexagon".
Moreover,
the
band's music and lyrical focus revolves around ancient ethical
concepts, mythology, philosophy, hate and rebellion. This thematic
focus draws from the influence of A Poisoned Society, not unlike the
society from which the Tyrants hail from, giving the band a
spiritual and irate edge to their music.
Soon Abominations EP was released on the 14th of
January 2007 and brought a new level to the local Metal scene and
proved to be a milestone in the history of Jordanian Metal. It is
described in a review by JorZine as, “One Fucking Masterpiece".
Tyrant Throne’s music can only be described as a Straight Up shot
of Technical Brutal Death Metal; extremely aggressive music that is
well played, with very descent sound production (which is rare to be
achieved in the Middle East) yet to
be seen in Jordan’s Metal history. Combining high speed brutal
riffing, and guttural vocals with hammering bass lines and drum
beats to create one of the most brutal and intense bands to be
experienced in the Middle
East. In addition,
Abominations received astounding reviews from
magazines and webzines worldwide, and has since been on radio
airwaves in Europe and the United States.
In May 2007 the band was finally able to find a
technical drummer; their good friend Hanna Marzouqa proved to be
technical as hell and earned his place as Tyrant Throne's permanent
man behind the drum kit. With a new stone solid line-up, the Tyrants
are ready to kick some fucking ass.
…This is just the beginning of the Throne!
