History

Order of Ennead was formed in Tampa, Florida in 2007 when guitarist/vocalist Kevin Quirion ran into bass player Scott Patrick at a Cradle of Filth show in Tampa. The two had previously played together in the band Council Of The Fallen. In their conversation, it came up that Deicide drummer and bandmate of Quirion Steve Asheim was interested in a jam session with the two of them. Scott Patrick was interested, and eventually the three began to play and write songs together. Lead guitarist John Li joined the band soon after, when Scott Patrick approached him. Li had met Patrick through his guitar teacher, Ralph Santolla, who also played in Deicide.[2]

When the band originally began working together, Quirion considered working under the band name Council of the Fallen, but decided that they would take on a new name since it became an entirely new project for all. Quirion took the name Ennead from a mythology of nine Egyptian deities.[3] In November 2008, the band released their self-titled debut album, with their second album, An Examination of Being, released in May 2010, both to warm critical reception, and both on the Earache Records label.[4] When John Li is not available for touring, guitarist Jack Owen, the current lead guitarist of Deicide, takes over.

Music

Order of Ennead are noted for their experimental nature within their songwriting. While maintaining the heaviness of death and black metal, many songs include elements such as odd time signatures, clean and ambient sections, and melodic guitar solos and melodies.
