(Progressive Black / Death Metal) Naumachia - Black Sun Rising - 2009, MP3 (tracks), 320 kbps

The point marking the beginning of Naumachia would be somewhere in 1999. Naumachia was initiated by Armand. As it usually happens, the band was taking on and sending away different guys, mounting to 10 of them. And they were not really sure what they wanted to play at that point. They did not know anything about music creation and had problems with handling their instruments. Fortunately they didnt give up and started to work on their skills. The direction they wanted to go with their music was also becoming clearer.
In September of 2000, Naumachia entered the Selani Studio (known for productions of Vader, Behemoth and Decapitated), where they recorded first demo. After that Naumachia appeared live getting their first gig experiences and gaining positive feedback from audiences. Koshen and Soyak joined for several gigs and a recording session another death metal band from their town Wyszkow, Faust.
The year 2003 caught Naumachia back at a studio. This time in the professional environment of Hertz, where during eight October days album Wrathorn was recorded. Three months later Naumachia signed a contract with Empire Records, released and sold 5000 copies of Wrathorn.

In September of 2004 the band was joined by new bass player Got (known from Faust) what improved technical skills of the rest of musicians. New drummer was also needed. Finding such a talented guy as Rob was not too easy. But finally they did. For several shows Naumachia hired a vocalist but then they decided that this position should be still kept by Soyak and Armand. It seems like the line up was established. Naumachia was ready for new challenges.
In February of 2005 Wrathorn was re-released by a French label: Adipocere Records. Naumachia played several shows as a support for the greatest Polish artists such as Closterkeller and took part in the biggest heavy metal festival in Eastern Europe: Metalmania, where they had a chance to play before Cradle Of Filth and Apocaliptyca.
Spring, summer and fall of 2005 was a time of hard work on new compositions. They will appear on the new Naumachia's album which is being produced.
