Portal

Decades of Horror, the work of Portal in achieving its twisted vision, multitudes of horror scapes seen through a distorted lens of filth. Elaborate darkness weaved into masses of Death Metal in its own antiquity of sonic violence and perpetuating the mythos self-created. The henchmen within this brood pledge to open up its gates to feed upon mortal terror, a duty to destroy the senses and sanity.The following summary although brief outlines the potent achievements by the Australian outcasts within both the recording realm and its live exploits around the world and on the Home front. Since 1994 the churning had begun, on through the years creating such full length albums as Seepia, Outre, Swarth, Vexovoid, ION and Avow, representations unique amongst themselves, each bearing the mind-set at the time, furthering the horrific visions of the Olde Guarde.

Introducing the band stable line-up since 2009:
The Curator, Horror Illogium, Aphotic Mote, Ignis Fatuus, Omenous Fugue.

International deployments include the U.S.A in 2010 touring multiple shows on the West and East Coast and ending at Maryland Deathfest. European tour in 2013 featuring festivals such as Hells Pleasure and Metal Magic as well as shows in Sweden, Finland, Germany and Denmark. In 2013 Japan invited Portal to perform 2 shows in Tokyo and 1 in Osaka. 2015 saw a massive undertaking by touring USA and Europe consecutively. Festivals hit this time… MDF and a return to New York and the much maligned Temples Fest in the UK. Other extremely note worthy countries on this tour were Switzerland, France, Italy and Ireland. In Australia tours have been executed over the years in support of Absu, Gorguts and Marduk and  any other shows and festivals downunder over the span of 22 years of executing Portal live.HORRIFIC ANTIQUE DEATH METAL Est. 1994
