On Dec. 12, Amenra will take to the live stage for a streaming event.

As the band explains it:

On a summer night this year we all came together on a meadow in our hometown, Kortrijk, to play our latest album, MASS VI in its entirety. This recorded performance was as a part of the European Metal Alliance online festival, and was the last concert we would be playing with our bass player, Levy Seynaeve. 

For one last time the circle of that AMENRA era was complete. We would now like to provide you with another opportunity to view this memorable meeting of friends. It was only us, and a crew of extremely talented friends. The sparse natural setting, special light set-up and drone footage makes for a unique concert experience like never before. 

A link to be replaced in this chain of strength.
A circle of fire to be drawn over and over again.

The group recently inked with Relapse Records for its next project, due in 2021. Check a 2016 inteview with SPB here.

Streaming tickets are available here.

VI
Neurot Recordings (2017)

I thought it a safe bet to listen to any album off Neurot Recordings with care and patience, and expect something great. Amenra is no fragile exception. Their essence taps a well of meaning seemingly endless on all levels of analysis, as much as it taps a particular sound thrust forward first by Black Sabbath, and most recently by Neurosis. Amenra didn’t … Read more

Mass V
Neurot Recordings (2012)

Rituals are deeply ingrained into our shared human experience and the modern ones seemingly thrust us back through the ages to some vaguely remembered race memory locked in the genetic code in safe guarded in our cells, and Amenra not only appreciates this phenomenon but exploit our collective unconscious to produce some rather breathtaking performances that at this point has … Read more
