The Turkish Doom/Death Metal band SERMON was founded in 1997 in Izmir. The

same year released the first demo "Cosmic Prisoner", then the band deepened its

musical research and released the demo "Sea of meanings" two years later on the

YUCEL Music label.


After the good feedback of this second demo, the band made a place for itself in

the Turkish, which allowed them to be invited in the television show

"Rock Market" which was broadcast on TRT, the television of State of Turkey.

After some line-up changes and the recording of new songs that would never be

released, the band broke up in 2004.


In 2021 ,Cem Barut (the only original member of SERMON) reformed the band

with Durmuş Kalın. They start working on new songs and include Harun Altun

(from FORGOTTEN, another Turkish Doom/Death band) on vocals to record the

new album.


"Till Birth Do Us Part", the band’s debut album will be available as CD digipack via

the BITUME label as well as on bandcamp and the streaming platforms from

February 10, 2023.


DISCOGRAPHY :

Till Birth Do Us Part

With their first album, the Turkish band SERMON offers us a deep and massively

Heavy Doom/Death Metal, which is characterized by an atmospheric clarity and an

intense depth.


SERMON creates and delivers solid songwriting and music composition, incredible

rendition of excellent craftsmanship and musicality using epic drum beats / slow

beats / rhythms. It also wields guitar riffs imbued with dark melodies as well as a

buzzing funeral atmosphere reminiscent of PARADISE LOST,TYPE O NEGATIVE&

ENTOMBED.
