I figured I'd do it here too and show you all our awesome new logo. The new name is The Summoned. Here's the new logo:



Our EP "Harvest" should be in stores by February, released on Respawn Records.

Logo was done by none other than Mr. Mark Richards himself, came out fucking sweet.

That looks like it'd hurt to pass.

You have my permission. Thanks for checking :-)

I'm glad that when this goes on the main page, the topic will totally tell people what's up. most people would have said something like "Of the Betrayed changes name to the Summoned" or something like that.

justifiable butthurtness

Yeah, I never would've known this was OTB related.

i only knew because i recognized him as a guy from that band.

Let's kill those sons of bitches.

let's give 'em to mongo!

still cliche

NOCTUARY was known as SUMMONED before they changed their name and there's a SUMMONED from Finland that has 2 releases out in 2005 and 2006.

but they're THE Summoned

Oh, TOTALLY different!

All I found on metal-archives was summoning.

But either way, look at how many sudden death's there are. Plus there's two Atrocity's that I know of.

There's 2 bands named SUMMONED on there.

One of them is currently Noctuary. I was wrong. That was the only one I saw on there. So either way, we'll get over it.

So why are you changing the name of your band?

To go with a lot of changes. Lost a member in June. Decided to stay a four piece. We don't play any of the old music we had when he was in the band, and the new stuff is completely different and heavier. New name to go with a basically new band.

Fair 'nuff.

So who has summoned you and what do they want?

largefreakatzero said:

Think you're the 10th person to ask me that including my dad and uncle hahah.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

It's cool mang. Hahah.

it seems like the word summon or variations on that word are popular when changing your name, considering downfall changed their name to summoning hate a few months ago.

OTB went EMO. This is very appropriate :-D

hahahaha, i forgot to include it also makes for great song titles

HIDEOUSLY SUMMONED would be better.

Yeah our new shit is heavy as hell. More progressive, more death metal, phasing out any hardcore element we had and just going with our roots. Some slam parts every once in a while but mainly fast pace riffs, off-timed parts, and what not. Our new shit is highly influenced by Carcass, Decapitated, Behemoth, and Death.

GODDAMN MISCOMMUNICATION VIA INTERWEB!

After however many years on this absolute morphodite, I still don't have a fucking clue as to who / what nickname on here is in what band. My asshole credentials = IRONCLAD

be careful as to not click on any user names...that shit brings you to a place that tells you all of that shit

Nameless Abomination is my death metal band name. I CALL IT. Thanks Lovecraft!

Shapeless Abomination actually... it's from the Lurking Fear.

...but a blasphemous abnormality from hell's nethermost craters; a nameless, shapeless abomination which no mind could fully grasp and no pen even partly describe.

Blasphemus Abnormality is cooler...

and I fixed my mistake before you, JD!

*Barney Gumble voice*
I like it.

"Shapeless Domination" by Monstrosity is probably one of the best death metal songs ever written.


...In this landscape of burning life
Those who suffer the wrath
Dissolve and become one
With the body of the beast infernal.
DESTRUCTION!!!
