In 2006 they found those musicians in André Ribeiro (guitars) and Daniel Botelho (bass).The result of two years of
experimentation,OBLIQUE RAIN released their first full-length album "ISOHYET" on Major Label Industries in 2007.Still lacking a
drummer,the band utilized the talents of USS Studios session drummer Daniel Cardoso for the recording.
Claiming such diverse influences as OPETH,AMORPHIS,TOOL,PORCUPINE TREE,ANATHEMA,MESHUGGAH,DREAM THEATER,DEVIN
TOWNSEND,PINK FLOYD and even DEPECHE MODE,OBLIQUE RAIN play original,melodic yet complex progressive metal and are
highly recommended. « hide |
