Conjured in 2010 by the duo of vocalist/guitarist/bassist Philippe Tougas and drummer Philippe Boucher, CHTHE’ILIST’s intent was to play abhorred, morbid and dark atmospheric brutal technical death metal with over-the-top dual-harmonic guitar shredding. The result would be the “Amechth’ntaas’m’rriachth” demo which was released in 2012 and caused quite the stir in the underground death metal scene. The band’s sound would ultimately reminisce the bizarre aura of such cult luminaries as Demilich (along with giving an overall nod to early ‘90s Finnish death metal, Demigod, Abhorrence, Xysma etc.), Timeghoul, Infester, and Adramelech all while creating a horrid and vile atmosphere of enveloping dread.

Now almost five years since their inception, CHTHE’ILIST’s earth devouring debut full-length album “Le Dernier Crépuscule” is finally preparing itself for its impending release on Jan 29th.
