Hailing from Maryland, Snipers Of Babel were conceived in 2016 and are the brainchild of Mike Bossier (Morbius, Oblivion). The band take an unorthodox approach in metal. Gabriel is the band’s debut full-length of shredding, industrialized death metal with groove and notes of progressive metal, and is a concept album about the breakdown of humanity and its eventual demise to artificial intelligence.
Snipers Of Babel also fuse classical and soundtrack-esque ambience along with multiple, powerhouse vocalists that cover a wide range of sounds from guttural growls, to piercing screams and soaring operatic melodies. Full of grooves, top-notch production, machine gun drums and riffs, “Gabriel” is an intricate, skillfully crafted soundscape unlike anything else heard in metal to date.
Snipers Of Babel features the prolific Kevin Talley (Dying Fetus, Misery Index, Suffocation) on drums and guest vocal spots by Richard ‘Grindfather’ Johnson (Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Drugs Of Faith, Enemy Soil), Frank Rini (Internal Bleeding), and more. For fans of the music of Chimaira, Devil Driver, Dying Fetus, Fear Factory, and Suffocation.
