The band’s first steps go back to the late 90s-era, when guitarist and vocalist Mucho Kolb (ex-Soulsearch/My Midnight Sun) founded Our Survival Depends On Us together with drummer Mani Eibner in Salzburg.

Years of rehearsals followed until two more Soulsearch members joined the band: Thom Kinberger (guitar/vocals) and Hajot Gmeilbauer (samples/soundscapes), together with bassist Barth Resch (ex-Belphegor).

From Post Rock to Sludge Metal, Intense Spiritual Music is the label that was chosen by OSDOU themselves. Mantra- and tribal-like drumming lays the foundation for hypnotically soundscapes created by two 7-strings, accentuated with pitched-black sound samples from the keys and finally hammered through the auditory canals by the pulsating bass.

The conjuring and mourning vocals of three singers guides you through the darkest abysses. A seamless change between acoustic lightness and mighty slow motioned guitar walls evokes emotions of rage, sadness, bitterness, affiliation, love and more.
