Omega Massif is an instrumental post-metal/Sludge band from Würzburg, Germany and were formed in 2005 by Andreas Schmittfull (guitar), Michael Melchers (guitar), Boris Bilic (bass guitar) and Christof Rath (drums). They recorded their demo Kalt in 2005 and began playing shows with bands like Knut, Taint and Tephra among others. In 2007, Omega Massif released their first full-length album Geisterstadt (which means Ghost Town in German). The album weaves a tale of ancient abandoned silver mines, treks through deep mountain tunnels, and forsaken boom towns illustrated through Omega Massifs massive instrumental post-metal. The vocaless nature of the music turns the focus on pure atmosphere, and Omega Massif deliver, layering the pulverizing repetitive metalchug with a sense of gloom and longing that becomes near-suffocating at times, but there are also lots of gorgeous ethereal melodies throughout. Current line-up Andreas Schmittfull - Guitar Michael Melchers - Guitar Boris Bilic - Bass Christof Rath - Drums Additional notes Omega Massif was founded in september 2005. Michael Melchers is not the same guy as in Manstractor.
