Stargazer - Great Work of Ages

2010 release from the Australian Metal act. One of the most unique and bizarre underground bands around, Stargazer plays Death Metal that leans toward the technical/progressive side of the genre, following in the footsteps of Atheist, Cynic, Pestilence and Gorguts. The two primary members-known as the Serpent Inquisitor and the Great Righteous Destroyer-have been involved with some of Australia's top Extreme Metal bands, including Mournful Congregation, Cauldron Black Ram and Outre-era Portal. Despite the fact that they've existed for the better part of the last 15 years, Stargazer has only released a single full-length album, along with a handful of demos, splits and EPs. Nevertheless, much like their contemporaries in Portal, they command a fervent cult following of extreme music fans who appreciate artists who push the envelope within the genre.
