The Omnific
By Charlotte Stace
The Australian instrumental progressive metal band, The Omnific, comes to perform live at Razzmatazz. Formed in 2016 in Melbourne, Australia, the band consists of the bassists Matt Fack and Toby Peterson-Stewart, and the extraordinary drummer Jerome Lematua.
Together, they've been successful in creating an extraordinary body of work to date that mixes progressive rock, djent, funk and soundscapes created by synthesisers. They burst onto the music scene with the release of their debut EP ‘Sonorous’ in 2016. Met with critical acclaim, it was shortly followed by the EP ‘Kismet’ in 2017, and later ‘The Mind’s Eye’ in 2019.
Following the success of their first three EPs, they went on to release their first debut studio album Escapades in late 2021, which sent them on a full tour of Australia. Now, after taking some time out to write and hone their craft, they’re back with The Law of Augmenting Returns (2024). Don’t miss them live.
