Gathering ov Vultures

Black Metal band originating out of Mobile Alabama USA in 2015. Formally known as Architects of Apocalypse. Daniel Hoke and Matthew Stacy began the project in 2011 when their previous project disbanded in 2010. Work was put on hold to accommodate session work and to help with other projects such as D.R.E.A.D long time gulf coast power metal band and the short lived THIRD LEG 80s Metal cover band. In 2014 Daniel and Matt continued work on A.O.A. ( Architects of Apocalypse) bringing in Sterling Chinchar, former bassist of Glutton for Misery, Beyond Descent and D.R.E.A.D. He was shortly replaced by former SHS (Seven Hills Steel) bassist William Mills. Shortly thereafter they were also joined by vocalist Daniel Olson. In August of 2015 they released "Law ov Man" their debut EP under the new name Gathering ov Vultures. This began their on stage onslaught making them a firm new player in the extreme metal world in the south east US. In April 2016 the band was joined by long time friend and former guitarist for Third World Abortion and Wicked Stench, completing their line up. They have made a sound including influences from thrash, death, doom and technical metal giving them a unique diverse sound, coupled with dark, evil lyrics making for a very black metal product.
