The Halo Effect, Lacuna Coil, Omnium Gatherum
Metal concert with The Halo Effect, Lacuna Coil, and Omnium Gatherum in Prague.
Omnium Gatherum is a Finnish melodic death metal band from Karhula, formed in 1996. They began as a company for friends and neighbours, cut early demos away from the cellar, and released the debut Spirit and August Light through Rage of Achilles in 2003. The breakthrough came with the second album Years in Waste (2004) and the records that followed, which carried the band across Europe and to Japan. Behind the mic have stood Antti Filppu, Juha Pelkonen, Jukka Pelkonen and finally Marius Lyckholm, the current singer and bassist. Guitarist Markus Vanhala is joined by Atte Pesonen, Aapo Kohtala, Mikko Pennanen and Joonas Kalaje. The Burning Cold (2018) cemented their audience abroad, The Redshift (2023) appeared on Atomic Fire Records, and the latest work Voices of Winter (2025) keeps the Finnish melodic death tradition alive.
Natalie Pereira dos Santos took over on bass and vocals.
The Redshift appeared on Atomic Fire Records, and the band filmed a live video for it in Kouvola.
