About:
So it’s 2012 and the end of time may be near, or so they say, but that’s no reason to panic because Vancouver-based metal masters Titans Eve are gearing up to unleash their second full-length album, the extremely timely and aptly titled, Life Apocalypse.
The perfect musical end for the perfect apocalypse, the 11 tracks of Life Apocalypse were produced by Titans Eve and recorded by Sacha Laskow of Divinity at Perfect Fifth Studios in Calgary, AB in a manner that was strikingly different from the band’s first foray into the studio while creating their critically-acclaimed debut, The Divine Equal. After all, time was of the essence. “This album was written faster and was more of an aggressive attempt at writing and recording an album,” says guitarist Kyle Gamblin. “We hammered out the songs and bunkered down to record in Calgary with Sacha Laskow for a month and recorded every day.”
Taking a turn from their debut, which was released in February of last year, but staying true to their personal interpretations of honest, powerful modern metal, “the result, Life Apocalypse, shows our efforts and captures the best performances from all four members of our band. We worked very hard to deliver something that wouldn’t disappoint fans of our last album,” says Brian Gamblin.
Following the release of Life Apocalypse this summer, Titans Eve will once again pile into the “Titan Train” (i.e. their 2007 Ford E-350 van) and travel across Canada, bringing their music to as great an audience as possible, supporting Canadian metal heavyweights Anvil and oh, so much more until the clock stops ticking.

“Unstoppable Titans Eve” – Georgia Straight (Vancouver) (Riffs Not Riots Event)
“Blistering set of doom thrash” – Beatroute
“Titans Eve has quickly risen through the ranks of the Vancouver metal scene, quickly becoming one of the best thrash bands in town.” – Absolute Underground Magazine
“The Gamblin brothers shred like crazy, easily making Titans Eve one of the best local (Vancouver) thrash bands. They really blew everyone away, and sent beer flying all over the place.” – Absolute Underground Magazine (Live Review)
“Titans Eve churned out their own unique brand of thrash metal. Brothers Kyle and Brian Gamblin did a great job stirring up the crowd,… With a short but sweet set with crowd favourites including “The Tides of Doom”, “Serpent Rising”, “Into the Fire” and “Living Lifeless,” Titans Eve left it all on stage and made a strong impression.” – Abort Mag (Live Review)
“Gotta love bands like this that come from left field and surprise one with their sound, attitude and imagery. Titans Eve hails from Vancouver, hardly a global metal hotspot, and performs traditional and true heavy metal without any of the superfluous gimmickry that has become a hallmark of metal betrayal and ineptitude. The quartet’s sound is heavy and anthemic and blatantly related to the true sounds of Priest, Maiden and Arch Enemy” – Metallian.com
“Titans Eve had everything that was needed to make for a killer show; solid memorable music that can move even the folks who are unfamiliar with the songs, backed by a tight, powerful performance. ” – Metalstorm.net (Live Review)
“TITANS EVE have embraced the old fashioned Thrash ethic of keeping an eye on quality and not going overboard with content. ” – Metal-Observer.com
“Third to the stage was Titans Eve (www.myspace.com/titanseveofficial), a modern thrash metal band with some epic European metal sounding influences. Their new album, The Divine Equal, is due on February 1st, with possible North American and beyond tour dates to follow. This band already have a rabid fan base, with one devotee informing me “These guys are gong to play Ozzfest one day man – they’re gonna f— headline Ozzfest!” Judging by their proficient heavy talent, you would never guess that this band has only been performing together for around three years.” - Vancmusic.ca – Concert Review
“Thrashy, crunchy goodness that’s perfect to bang your head to.” – Funeralrain.net
“The next act of the night, was again, Vancouver’s own, Titan’s Eve. They had their fans standing strong against the barrier, thrashing amongst one another, and screaming the words back to the guys…Their performance was extremely strong, and energetic. The last song, Brian got the crowd cheering him on to chug a beer, and its my pleasure to say, he successfully chugged a full beer, and finished their set with a song packed with heavy riffs, strong drum beats, and vocals to captivate the audience.” – RockstarWeekly.com (Live Review) from opening w/ Exodus
Album Reviews from The Divine Equal
Metal Hammer (Germany) – Album of The Month – September 2011
“Returning with their incredible, gap-spanning take on moderately melodic and primeval metal, Vancouver, BC ragers Titans Eve deliver some creative, impressively cohesive work on latest full-length The Divine Equal” - Exclaim!
” The Divine Equal presents an opportunity for the band to save underground thrash metal from its current ‘nu-thrash’ moniker and that in itself is something exciting….The energy from “Judgement” carries on throughout the rest of the record and helps to maintain a level of head banging that will surely cause permanent neck damage…an impressive debut. 4/5″ – MetalUnderground.com
“Titans Eve have built a considerable foundation to springboard from on The Divine Equal and I would optimistically look forward to what the future holds for the four of them. “ - Metal-Rules.com
“Every track is a full blown “Arena Anthem.” You can sing along at any point with very distinct choruses that leave the listener anticipating their next chance to belt along with vocalist Brian Gamblin.” – WeLoveMetal.com
“The Divine Equal is a full on aural assault from beginning to end.” – PureGrainAudio.com
“I’d like to point out Titans Eve is a band I like because of their anthem filled nature. The songs on show are very easy to sing along to, and that could be just what is needed in metal today. Stand out tracks: Judgement, Nightfall and Becoming The Demon.” - Ultimate-Guitar.com
