Ikarass is a post-metal/doom band based in Durango, Basque Country, formed in early 2013 when Hodei G. Mendiguren and Matio Baños (both guitarists) put together their interest in heavy and extreme music. Gradually the other members were joining into the band, first of all Imanol M. Aginako (vocals), Unai Baseta (bass) and Imanol Bilbao Bernaola (drums).

Extremely influenced by post metal classics like Neurosis, Cult Of Luna, Isis, Amenra or Russian Circles; dark atmosphere is a constant in Ikarass' sound. Ashtonising drone and ritual/tense ambients are intermixed with heavy riffs. Dense structures uplifts into emotional and clean guitar passages, all combined with heartbreaking and touchy vocals.

Their first record Relapse Into Desolation was recorded and mixed by Xanpe at Koba Estudios, Bilbao (Spain) and released on March 6th, 2020.
