October 21 Demo

Hailing from Southern California, Aestus is a heavy metal outfit devoted to writing funky down-tuned grooves, and having an amazing time doing it. Creating an eclectic blend of funky, polyrhythms, provocative harmonies, and eerie soundscapes, the band proves that you don't have to sacrifice soul to be heavy and funky at the same time (and don't be ashamed to dance, you know you want to).

It all started in the Summer of 2009, when Julian and Dakota met at a music camp in Los Angeles, brought together through mutual influences like Gojira, Opeth, Tool and Meshuggah. The Fall of 2010 brought with in the addition of close friend and Bassist, Rob Felix. Aestus gained it's current voice with the addition of Dorian Grae in February of '12 and immediately began writing their sophomore EP, "Psychonaut", a 6-part concept slated for release on Friday, September 13th, 2013. 

Influences: Lamb of God, Gojira, Meshuggah, Opeth, Rush, Korn, Metallica, Tool, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mastodon, Primus, Soilwork, Children of Bodom, Iron Maiden, Dream Theater, TesseracT, Animals As Leaders, Wintersun, Slipknot, DevilDriver, Alice in Chains, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Pantera, Machine Head, At The Gates, Shadows Fall, Chimaira, and Periphery
