Failed New Zealand Idol entrants who decided to form a death metal band. Hailing from the mean streets of Waipukurau, Napier & Lower Hutt, Aethea was formed in 2005 and before long were playing a brutal blend of sega influenced grind/death etc sounding somewhere between Napalm Death and early Nasum with lower vocals.

The music stretches your ring but you’ll feel better afterwards…

Aethea are:

Sammy Curr (guitar)
Jed Krinkle (bass)
The Mighty Quinn (vocals)
Jay Rodeo (drums)
