Founded in 2013 by Martin "Nif" Hamiche, Aephanemer is a Melodic Death Metal band born and located in Toulouse, France.

Aephanemer’s music is characterized with a taste of Scandinavian Melodic Death Metal (Dark Tranquility, In Flames), patterns from Progressive Metal (Dream Theater, Opeth), and depicting shapes and symbols of blues, classical music and russian patriotic marchs.

The core spirit of Aephanemer is to use the might and beauty that can be produced of a bass drum or a six-stringed instrument to narrate slices of life, and express the intense feelings related to it, in the most authentic way possible.

Having initially begun as a one-mand band, the musical essence of Aephanemer has been crystallized in January 2014, within a first solo EP : "Know Thyself", mixed by Maciej Dawidek (Widek) and illustrated by Niklas Sundin (Dark Tranquility).

The year 2014 will be marked by the formation of a complete line-up and the organization of concerts in Toulouse musical scene, but also by the composition and realization of a first full-length album, planned to be released in 2015.
