Founded in 2020 by guitarist Steve Elias, SELIAS combines melodic death metal with groove and alt metal elements. Their sound is heavy and cinematic, built on aggressive riffs, heavy and melodic vocals, and atmospheric textures.
The band’s lineup includes vocalist Guillaume Pascual, whose blend of guttural growls, soaring clean vocals, and ambient keys adds emotional range; Daniel Bouwman on hard-hitting drums; Jeff Hyde anchoring the sound with melodic, heavy bass lines; and Steve Elias, the band’s architect, with intricate, commanding guitar work. Together, they forge a sound that’s both emotionally resonant and relentlessly heavy.
