The Meads Of Asphodel are a British experimental metal band formed in 1998, known for their genre-blurring chaos and unapologetically eccentric style. Spearheaded by enigmatic frontman Metatron (real name Jason Mendonça), the group mixes black metal with folk, industrial, punk, and even disco, often laced with biting satire and historical/religious themes. Their lyrics tackle provocative subjects like religious corruption, war, and societal decay, delivered with a darkly humorous edge. Recent releases like *Running Out of Time Doing Nothing* (2020) and the *Damascus Steel* EP (2022) continue their tradition of chaotic creativity, blending blast beats with unexpected instrumentation like trumpets or medieval folk passages. Though they’ve faced lineup shifts over the years, The Meads remain a cult favorite for fans who crave rebellious, genre-defying metal with brains and a twisted sense of fun.
