Axis of Advance
Axis of Advance was a Canadian death metal band from Edmonton, Alberta that formed in 1998 and dissolved in 2008. The band was formerly known as Sacramentary Abolishment until drummer Paulus Kressman left the band. Kressman went on to form another death metal band called Rites of Thy Degringolade and currently plays drums in the black metal band Weapon.
Axis of Advance consisted of three members: guitarist/vocalist Wör, bassist/vocalist Vermin and drummer J. Read, who is classified as a session member despite his position of being apparently permanent.
Vermin also plays session guitars in J. Read's main band Revenge and was involved in Weapon for a short period of time. Vermin and J. Read both play in Blood Revolt along with Primordial's A.A. Nemtheanga.

History
Axis Of formed in 2007, and after various line up changes they released debut single "Brobdingnagian" in late 2009, launching in Belfast in January 2010. Since early 2010 the band have enjoyed a rise in popularity, partly due to the release of their 2nd single "Port Na Spaniagh", which was released along with a music video, available on YouTube.
Following one of the band's UK tours in early 2010, Rock Sound magazine dubbed them "the most exciting band to come out of Northern Ireland, possibly ever" and gave them a 9/10 rating for their live performance at a show in Newcastle. As a result of this coverage the band were subsequently asked to take part in a Maida Vale Studios session in January 2011.
On 10 October 2012 they announced that they signed with Derry based label Smalltown America Records. Their début album was released in Autumn 2012 and titled Finding St Kilda.

Absolute Conviction In The Accolade
by: Axis Of AdvanceNeedles piercing my frame from all directions
Body thrashing, head collapsing, pressure building
Paralyzing fear and helplessness like nothing seen before
All my life passes by in a tiny flicker
Was it real, all I feel, or all I felt is changing fast
Faster, faster, pulling me down pushing me up all at once
Vision accelerated one million fold
I see all my father's dreams
My mother dying in a cave
My body growing, my mind expanding
Too much knowledge, not enough knowledge
Brought to bear, the truths surrounding the soul
A destiny presented itself to me
No thought is necessary now
I will go to this earthly place to gain unearthly strength
Egypt, Egypt, Egypt
From the vortex land Elmreckt and I returned
Our land looks so ordinary and old
There is nothing here to quench my new thirst
The lord and I bid each other farewell and separate
