"Nescire autem quid ante quam natus sis acciderit, id est
semper esse puerum.

"Not to know what happened before you were born is to
remain forever a child."
(Cicero; 46. B.C.)

IMPERIOUS, hailing from Franconia, Germany regard the
words of rome's most famous philosopher as a principle:
They want to tell stories of the past, of heroes, legends and
myths for bringing them back into the memory of their
listeners. Forced by a close affinity to history and epic
poetry the lyrical focus of IMPERIOUS lies on developing
concepts out of those substances.
For composing their words they unite different styles of
Metal, particularly an atmospheric and epic kind of Black
Metal mixed with rushing Thrash / Death Metal elements
and rounded off with looming parts of Doom Metal.
Clear and acute vocals paired with catchy solo guitar
melodies give this music a special recognition value.
The first IMPERIOUS album was released in April 2011 a.d.
and tells the history of Varus, of his relation to Arminius and
of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest.
