A band growing from the underbelly of Amman, Jordan comes ESODIC, a thrashdoom arabic infused hybrid that will tear the face off of you with heavy riffage and face melting solos. They all merge to make a great sounding 4 track EP.
Faced with battles of harassment and arrest throughout their years of being active, ESODIC have been through member changes and won the hearts of fans new and old with their participation in the Global Battle of The Bands to come out stronger than they have ever been before.


Their new EP tells their trials and tribulations of Jordans turbulent history and is heavy on the political commentary. They have since moved out of Jordan into the Sunshine capital of Los aAngeles where they are free from all their past troubles and able to truly show who they are musically and be free to speak what they wish with their music.

 

Their sound is similar to a mixture of TESTAMENT and Exodus, so if these are to your taste, definitely give them a listen.
My stand out track by them is Reign. The intro is what I describe as “face-punching riffage.” It hooks your attention instantly, infused with the Arabic instrumental, it just gives a beautiful riff that makes you want to listen more. The solo has a very Arabic influence to it and it all blends together perfectly, which you don’t usually expect with the heavier side of music. 

 

Overall, their sound is definitely different to what I am used to. The whole sound works fantastically well together, bringing sounds that you wouldn't expect, put together. This is a very well self-produced EP that will ignite the fuel of listeners, bringing a new sound to those that have never heard of ESODIC before. Could this be their breakthrough into the wider music scene?
De Facto De Jure, ESODICs self-released and self produced EP will be available to download and listen to from May 22nd 2024.
