TAO MENIZOO biography:

The story of Tao Menizoo starts in 1997 but it's only after two line-up changes in 1998 and 
2000 that the band reached its decisive line-up. The French quartet provides you with raging 
Metal that is the amalgam of strong Power Metal influences with Death accents and a Thrash 
inspiration, to which a touch of Industrial and mystical atmospheric scenes have been added. 
All of this is efficiently underlined by melodic backing vocals and Deathcore lead vocals 
reminiscent of Sepultura but currently undergoing evolution toward a mixture of Death, 
Black, Power and clean sounds. This astonishing hybrid kind of Metal was baptized 
Polymorphic Metal by the band itself. Tao Menizoo played with the likes of Artsonic, 
Watcha, Oversoul, Eyeless, Dagoba, Sherkan, Ratamahatta and C4. Their first album is 
officially available since June 2003. The eleven Metal songs on it testify of a determinedly 
professional approach although the album is entirely self-produced. Indeed, track recording, 
mixing and mastering (by the band's own live-sound engineer), cover design, CD-Rom 
section conception and production were all handled by band members. In the meantime, 
several prominent media already manifested their approval of the silver disc, as there are: 
Hard Rock Magazine, Rage, Rock Sound and many others. The latest line-up change 
(September 2003) welcomed Cyril, who'll be in charge of synths, backing vocals, percussion 
and samples in order to make Tao Menizoo's music an even richer live (and studio) 
experience. Finely tuned technical support as well as a well thought through light show top 
the cake, which proved to be a tasty one indeed at different venues this past year. The band 
wants more of course and is also getting ready to record a bunch of new songs for the next 
album.
