A unique player in the extreme metal world, Osaka, Japan's Birushanah mixed extreme technical and experimental sludge and doom sounds with traditional Japanese percussion and scale, developing a sound that was not dissimilar to fellow countrymen Corrupted.
Formed in 2002, the group soon released its first single, Touta. It would take a while for Birushanah to release their first full-length, but the band could be found honing their chops on stages in Japan, Australia, and the hotbed of extreme metal, Europe. As for releasing an album, when that day did come, in Japan in 2007, the response was strong enough that members Iso (guitar, vocals), Sougyo (lead bass, vocals), Sano (bass), Minori (Japanese percussion), Wakki (metal percussion), and Kouhei (drums) would see the re-release of the critically well received album -- Akai Yami -- on an international scale a year later. ~ Chris True
