- Omega Crom is a Ripping Metal band based out of Vancouver B.C. who bring to the stage progressive power metal and elements of aggressive death and thrash.
Omega Crom, fearless in its pursuit of primal shredding takes a note from Robert E. Howard's "Conan the Barbarian", making its metal the stuff of legend.
Forging ahead with relentless, blistering guitar solos, thundering drums that effortlessly combine tribal beats with ferocious blast beats, a rhythm that will make you headbang your head off and a groove that'll make you cry for more.
Omega Crom released their debut album in March 2009 entitled "BLOOD, STEEL AND FIRE". The album was a brutal onslaught of riffs and attitude and was dubbed by many as "Judas Priest on steroids".
After a cross Canada tour and a few line up changes, Omega Crom reformatted itself into a one-guitar monster in early 2012 before entering studios for their second album “BEYOND CONTROL”, to be released in early 2013.
With the come back of Colin Furness on the drums and the addition of Sylvain Maltais on the bass, the new songs emerged more refined and virtuosic than ever before.
Celine Derval was added as a guest singer on some tracks and the magic that resulted eventually solidified her position in the rank as she can now be seen as a full time member of Omega Crom.

started off in 2009 as a solo project by Vanan Kesavan. He recorded
and released his first self-titled album “Naraka” in the spring of 2010.
The following summer he went on to recruit a full line up and the band
began to play their first shows. Aaron Newton joined in June 2010 as
the drummer (while the band had seen line-up changes in other
departments). 2011 saw new opportunities for the
band. With a full line-up intact, the band got a spot on a portion of
[singaporean band] Rudra's Canadian Tour. The late-summer and fall was
busy time for the band as well. Several shows in the Medicine
Hat/Southern AB area. As of late 2011 the band has been putting
together new material which will see the band's second release and first
full-length album to be released in 2012.
Description
Raised
in a Hindu family, founding member Vanan was heavily influenced by
South Indian Carnatic music as a child. Combing this with heavy, groovy
rifts, and haunting melodies, the bands first album has laid a solid
foundation for the bands sound. Their vocals range from the hauntingly
melodic, to the edgy and gritty, to angry and malevolent screams with a
subtle flavour emanating from Carnatic roots. Aaron’s drumming style
brings in a new dimension of early thrash metal and modern progressive
techniques. All these elements coming together make for exciting
possibilities in the bands future endeavours.
