about
Asklepeion is a Melodic Black Metal with a 90’s but also a modern vibe from Tilburg (The Netherlands).
The band was formed in 2021 by Thijs (Welmoed, Misanthropia) and Robster (ex-Southern Werewolf Farm).
William (FAAL, Spina Bifida, 666 Shades of Shit, ex-Foretold, ex-Domestic Violence) joined them on the project.
The Asklepeion project was born in the beginning of 2021 when Thijs and Robster had the idea to start a musical project to keep themselves busy during the pandemic.
They write some songs, record them at home and release an EP.
Both fans of 90’s (melodic) Black Metal, the songwriting quickly went that way and the decision was made to stick with it and make an album full of Melodic Black Metal with a 90’s but also a modern vibe.
After the songwriting was done and the recordings were finished the search for a drummer and a vocalist started.
William was enthusiastic to join the project and do the vocals.
Whilst playing and recording keyboards, the idea of programming the drums was born, to avoid logistical and time-based issues, so Thijs performed this task as well.
The album lyrically consists themes of mythology, diseases and pandemics from the middle-ages, downfall of mankind, questioning religion and mercy.
We choose not to print them. When it comes to writing and production, we strive for a neat listenable, yet not overproduced end result.

The days of yore. Yesteryear. The ancient past. When a life well-lived became legend, and legend became myth. A time when acts of odds-defying heroism against forces of great evil were celebrated and immortalised. The forgotten soundtrack to accompany harrowing adventures in Middle Earth. A swirling black metal maelstrom of beautiful synths, tremolo riffs, and cascading drums, at once the sombre farewell to autumn and the grand embrace of winter’s majesty. Aran has given us the truth.

Horned Lord of the Thorned Castle
by Moonlight Sorcerysupported by 4 fans who also own “Asklepeion - I: Basilisk | MMR037”
Easily one of my favorite albums I've heard in recent memory. Every single song is memorable in it's own way. The production, the atmosphere. This is a perfect record. It's like Children of Bodom meets Black Metal

Oceans Above
by The Color of Rainsupported by 4 fans who also own “Asklepeion - I: Basilisk | MMR037”
One of the best releases in 2023. Progressive post-black with a touch of death metal. The vocals are varied; growls, screams, clean singing and spoken words. And I really love those stunning acoustic parts. Definitely a highly recommended debut album from these dutch guys.

On Sannhet’s latest album, produced by Peter Katis (Interpol, The National), their heaving instrumentals have new depth and breadth.

This record hits that sweet spot of atmospheric, melodic black metal with flourishes of folk instrumentation that I just can't get enough of.
