Lykathea Aflame

Czech technical death metal band Lykathea Aflame took Appalling Spawn's combination of melody and brutal death/grind to a new level with some great technicality. The band broke up, but Petr and Tomás have reformed under the name "Lykathé" and are recording a new album. Their only album, Elvenefris, was released in 2000. In addition they recorded different versions of the tracks "To Give" and "Shine of Consolation" for Obscene Extreme sampler discs. The main man behind Lykathea Aflame, Petr Tománek (aka Ptoe), brought in drummer Tomás Corn (formerly of Garbage Disposal) and some of Czech Republic's finest musicians to craft Elvenefris. The band broke up after it was released. Tomás Corn announced at some point afterward that he was forced to quit playing drums due to neurological problems in his foot. On November 2009 Tomás mentioned: "We just started to work on new album yesterday (after many years of "sleeping")" www.bandzone.cz/lykathe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lykath%C3%A9
