⋘"Fire Is Born" comes off of Vimana's first release, a four-track demo entitled "The Collapse EP", made available through Bandcamp. Engineered by Dave Otero at Flatline Audio in Denver, CO and self-released by the band on July 1, 2012, the EP shows phenomenal musicianship and immense potential. Only the first track, which should be seen as something of an "intro", spans under three and a half minutes. The EP is being used to 'shop' for a record label and given how incredible the release is from start to finish, the band should have no problems finding one.⋙
◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ BAND BIOGRAPHY & INFORMATION ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊
Vimāna is a word with several meanings ranging from temple or palace to mythological flying machines described in Sanskrit epics. The newly formed band who go by the same name hail from Denver, Colorado and feature both former and past members of Cephalic Carnage, Vale of Pnath, To Be Eaten and Swashbuckle. Taking these bands into account, one would expect VIMANA to be nothing less than a progressive/avant-garde grindcore/death metal act.
Fans should take note that upon initially forming, the band decided on the name COLLAPSE, but later changed it to VIMANA; thus naming their demo/EP "Collapse" instead.
The band are shopping for a label and plan on releasing a full length debut sometime in the near future, though it most likely won't see the light of day until the first part of 2013. Still, pay close attention to these guys because they will absolutely explode onto the metal scene whenever a proper full length drops.
