The Committee
 The Band
The Committee started out as a one man project by Igor Mortis in the winter of 2007. After a
dormant period a team of 4 artists was assembled and further work begun on the recording and
release of the EP “Holodomor”. The 4 songs of the EP were accepted with great interest by the
metal community and were reviewed in several magazines, sites and blogs with an average of 7 / 10
rating. This has motivated the band to continue and work even harder. The band's headquarters are
in Belgium, but the members share different roots ( Dutch, French, Ukrainian and Russian ). This
strange diversity allows the band to be fluid, flexible and creative with their choice of music and
lyrics. The band is carving out a new path in the metal underground with new fresh concepts that
leave Satanism and Demonic influences in the dust. The main focus is history, occult manipulation
of the mind and fascinating past events. *The Committee is not a political band and has no interests
in promoting any agenda's*. The band's motto is: “History is written by the victors, we are the voice
of the dead”.
The Music
Originally The Committee started out as a doom metal band. However with the influence of the new
members, new refreshing black metal riffs were added and subsequently brought the band to a new
level. One of the trademarks of The Committee is a low, guttural guitar sound that touches the
senses and emotions. The drums have different degrees of variation from slow dragging ritualistic
tones to full throttle blast beats. The bass is not limited to a support act, but provides the needed
variation in the form of self expressed solo's and punchy attacks. The low “grinding stone” vocals
tell the story of pain, suffering and sheer horror.
