"Tribal is just one of the words to describe the sounds of Homerik."

- LOOK AND LISTEN MUSIC (UK)

"This is my musical journey, and I challenge everyone who is reading this, to shut off the world for a moment, turn this music on and just let it consume you. You will get great transitions, a wide range of vocal styles, and intense rhythms, but the feeling you are left with after you are done listening will be your own gift. Thank you Homerik for such a lovely gift and for bringing this experience to my life."

- DARKLAND PROMOTIONS [USA]

"A step ahead of many metal bands in terms of their scope and the time they’ve taken to carefully curate suites of music which transport the listener through time and space, Homerik are worthy practitioners of a new kind of intelligent, affecting thrash."

- SONIC NEWS [UK]

What is epic? Homerik: Curse of the Black Nile is epic.”

- Tully Dio (STONE & STEEL; KVCM 95.1) [USA]

A riot blockbuster… like a film score.”

- RUSS EVANS MUSIC SHOW; Ridge Radio [UK]

"Best of all is Wendigo, the opening screams and slow build of chest-bursting percussion giving way to some top-notch atmospherics. A real blood-chiller and a great indication of what Homerik have to offer in the future, hopefully."

- DEVIL HORNS MUSIC (UK)

"Multi-level, complex Symphonic Metal. Theatrically creative."

- METAL RISES IN THE EAST; Metal Nation Radio [CA]

“An almost vaudevillian exercise in stage metal…”

- THE LOWDOWN UNDER [UK]

"Their passion for unhinged, challenging art ranges from the traditional gothic to the twisted, epic, video game worlds of God of War, giving you glimpses of the darker sides of humanity before whisking you off to plague-infected pastures new."

- HEAR ME RAW (UK)

"Rest assured, Homerik never loses sight of the metal. A prime example is “Unforgotten Kin,” where the vocal work invokes a devilish choir from limbo, which sounds like Hades, perhaps chanting to Beelzebub himself. The drumming is extreme, the guitar edgy and the mood firmly hellish."

- Paul J. Wolfle (MUSIC INTERVIEW MAGAZINE) [USA]

"Epic... you can go there with it like a little movie. It's exactly why we do the 'Metal Moment'."

- Tully Dio (STONE & STEEL; KVCM 95.1) [USA]

"...This record ticks all the right boxes."

- Dave Ravenheart (RAVENHEART MUSIC) [USA]

"My personal highlight of the album 'The "Ire" of Green' brings together Irish style folk with fiddle and tin whistle mixed effortlessly with sharp, stabbing guitar chords, reminiscent of a heavier, darker Gogol Bordello."

- ROCKY ROAD (UK)

"Beginning with ‘Curse of the Black Nile’, an epic monstrosity incorporating lines from one of the most disturbing Ancient Egyptian texts (The Cannibal Hymn). The track has a regal elegance that slowly descends into something more sinister the longer it plays. Crescendo-ing into a rapid heavy metal drum beat and combining with a mixture of soft and aggressive spitting of lyrics."

- Skye W. Winwood (MUSIC NEWS TODAY) [UK]

“Utterly brilliant.”

- TEE-TOTAL GUITARS [UK]

"Astonishing... One Hell of an adventure."

- Steve Göldby (Metal Talk) [UK]

"'A Song of the Night Part 1' plunges from the frolicking earnestness of European classical into the archetypically Metal rancour of tolling church bells and chugging riffage, with a choir of Gregorian monks rounding things out with typical histrionics."

- Callum Oliver (SNACKATRACK) [UK]


"Homerik are one of those bands you feel you could grow up with. They’ve done their homework both musically and academically, with the sounds of metal both aged and modern flowing through their limbs, and the lore of the ancients stalking through their lyrics. There’s a comfort that they, like you, actually care about what they’re doing – they aren’t just throwing songs out there for the Hell of it, there’s time and great thought in the material they have created: it matters."

- SOMEBODY TOLD ME… (UK)


“Had to write straight back, very impressed with Homerik's sound and will definitely be playing it on LA ROCKS RADIO. Hope we get the chance to hear the rest of the album.”

- LA ROCKS RADIO (DE)


"We music listeners love to put everything in boxes. If you try this with Homerik though, you’ll most certainly find yourself struggling for words and completely lost in their complex, expansive arrangements as you try to make sense of the auditory rollercoaster you just got on."

- NEW MUSIC PLATFORM (UK)


“What a real epic sounding tune. Well produced, haunting vocals then when the drums come in, it takes it to another level.”

- Jeff Keenan (THE STEAMHOUSE ROCK SHOW; Chesil FM) [UK]

"Mystic yet wonderous..." 

- Natalie Perez (NATALIEZWORLD) [USA]

“…Leaving you shell shocked and wondering where exactly it is that your mind was just led.”

- SONGWRITER SPOTLIGHT [UK]

"With strong riffing, great production and vocal diversity this band showed me that metal is capable of experimentation, and succeeding at it. Songs to look out for especially are, "An Angel of Darkness, Curse of the Black Nile, The Balance of Power". Its a refreshing feeling to know that the torch of metal will be carried on and I'm proud that its in the hands of modern bands.”

- Dean Catsaros (METAL AWAITS) [AT]

"I always knew when Rick at Ever Metal asked me to do him a favour and review a band for him that it was not going to be a run of the mill band. I knew there was going to be diversity and that there was a very good chance that I wouldn’t like the album. I think Rick assumed that too, and how I love proving him wrong."

- Dawn King (EVER METAL) [USA]

"...A worthy contender to anyone's soundtrack to the dark side in all of us."

- Louise Tindall (SLAVES TO THE RHYTHM) [UK]
