Dagtum for Tech/Extreme

Dagtum are a Filipino avant-garde death metal trio from Pateros, formed sometime in the early years of the global coronavirus crisis. The group consists of three established figures in the Pinoy extreme metal underground: vocalist/bassist Adam Carlo Along (of death metal group Legion), drummer Ronaldo Vivo Jr. and his guitarist brother Ronnel (both of post-metal band Basalt Shrine and psych-rock unit the Insektlife Cycle, among others). Dagtum perform a fusion of black, death and atmospheric sludge metal with experimental touches, comparable to a meeting of the minds between Gorguts, Neurosis, Ulcerate, Flourishing and Portal.
