Darkside Recrods signs a new egyptian band : Welcome to Catharsis !

 We are thrilled to announce that Darkside Records and Catharsis are joining forces  !

 CATHARSIS Bio:

Hailing from Cairo, Catharsis is a symphonic doom/death metal force born in 2017 from pain, memory, and the desire to transform suffering into sound. Their music is a powerful fusion of crushing riffs, orchestral elegance, and a dual-vocal dynamic that blends guttural depth with haunting beauty.

Drawing inspiration from grief, depression, inner conflict, and self-destruction, Catharsis has created a signature atmosphere, where ethereal female melodies soar above punishing growls, wrapped in symphonic arrangements and heavy doom foundations.

 Ahmed A. Sokkar leads with brutal vocals and bass lines that carve through the gloom with raw emotion.

 Reham Hafez, with her angelic yet sorrowful voice, brings contrast and elegance, evoking a deep sense of longing.

 Ziad Mohsen, the band’s lead guitarist, delivers sweeping solos and melodic intricacy, while Mohamed Mostafa (Moda) anchors the rhythm with crushing riffs.

 Anwar Abosehly crafts the orchestral backbone, adding cinematic weight through his keyboard and arrangement mastery.

 Mohamed El Hussieny completes the sonic assault with thunderous drums that bring intensity and structure to their emotional chaos.

 Known for tracks like “I Am Suicide” and “Point Perfection: Depression”, as well as their critically acclaimed debut album A Journey of Remembrance, Catharsis has become a cornerstone of Egypt’s underground metal scene.

 Catharsis is not just music, it’s mourning turned into melody, despair forged into doom...prepare for the next chapter as they bring their darkness to the global stage with Darkside Records.
