Serbian technical thrashers Quasarborn have just released their latest music video for the song Crash Course in Life, upon returning from their first ever European tour.
This is the sixth entry in Quasraborn’s videography, following five singles off their debut album: The Odyssey to Room 101, Danse Macabre, Escape into Reality, Château d’If and Blood Honey.
“Crash Course in Life is about a young, careless, young metalhead who is struck by the cruelness of reality without any warning and forced to grow up. Responsibilities and pain of an adult pressure him in a way he can’t handle. He feels a huge gap between what was the core of his identity and what he is today. This is just the first chapter in the album’s story, then things start to heat up…”
The nucleus of this band dates back to 2005, when Đorđe Luković (guitar and backing vocals), Marko Danilović Tihi (drums) and Luka Matković (guitar and lead vocals) formed a band at a tender age, hailing from Belgrade, Serbia. After the break up of that band, Luka and Tihi formed Fatality and their partnership continued throughout the years, when they finally joined Space Eater, a legendary Serbian thrash metal band, in 2009, in which they were joined by Đorđe, just a few years down the line.
Under the Space Eater flag, they toured Europe twice, recorded two albums (“Aftershock” and “Passing through the Fire to Molech”), played the legendary Exit festival, etc. With more than enough experience under their belt gathered over the past few years, the three of the aforementioned members decided to leave the Space Eater ranks and to form a band of their own, recruiting yet another old acquaintance, Miloš Tomasović (bass guitar and backing vocals).
Finally, it is 2016 and the four members of the band settled upon the name “Quasarborn”. Our debut album is recorded and mixed and ready to go, and while our musical roots are still firmly rooted in the late 80s thrash metal style, there is a lot more variety this time around, with influences creeping up out of numerous genres (such as death, black and heavy metal, classic and progressive rock, and even some jazz and ethno). Besides the music itself, what Quasarborn really takes a lot of pride in, is the fact that that we are a DIY band. Namely, our music is recorded and mixed by Luka (for Citadela Sound Production) and Tihi is the one responsible for all the visual material Quasarborn-related. “The Odyssey to Room 101”, the band’s debut album came out in May this year, and they have just returned from their first European tour, so stick around and embark on the odyssey to Room 101 with us!
