Biography
The story of Tao Menizoo starts in 1997 but it's only after two line-up changes in 1998 and 2000 that the band reached its decisive line-up. The French quartet provides you with raging Metal that is the amalgam of strong Power Metal influences with Death accents and a Thrash inspiration, to which a touch of Industrial and mystical atmospheric scenes have been added.
All of this is efficiently underlined by melodic backing vocals and Deathcore lead vocals reminiscent of Sepultura but currently undergoing evolution toward a mixture of Death, Black, Power and clean sounds. This astonishing hybrid kind of Metal was baptized Polymorphic Metal by the band itself.
Tao Menizoo played with the likes of Artsonic, Watcha, Oversoul, Eyeless, Dagoba, Death by Design, Sherkan, Ratamahatta and C4.
A first album has been released in June 2003. The eleven Metal songs on it testify of a determinedly professional approach although the album is entirely self-produced. Indeed, track recording, mixing and mastering (by the band's own live-sound engineer), cover design, CD-Rom section conception and production were all handled by band members. In the meantime, several prominent media already manifested their approval of the silver disc, as there are: Hard Rock Magazine, Rage, Rock Sound and many others.
Today, the band is coming back to life and light with a new album, "So Blind", once again fully self-produced in the band own project studio ! 13 tracks of inventive metal, filled with more rage, more pain, more subtlety and built around a leading subject: the rise and fall of a modern messiah, violently starving for power?
Collecting more and more enthusiastic reviews, the album has made the band sign with the label Thundering Records / Manitou Music in July 2008, and the album is planned to be released as a digipack on autumn 2008...
