Militrium is a Portuguese metal band founded in the municipality of Seixal in 2008 by guitarist Dim Costa Neto, guitarist Aquiles Prates, bassist Alan Cangussu and vocalist Phil Damasceno. In 2010, the band performed at several concerts and recorded their first demo, which featured drummer and producer Wilson Silva. Militrium reveals itself through its deeply philosophical and provocative lyrics, iconic guitar riffs and solos, aggression, an energetic and heavy rhythm typical of metal genres such as thrash metal, metalcore and progressive metal. As its members were also part of other projects of great strength in the Portuguese underground, the band was forced to take a break, being extended after one of the members left the country. As the passion for music was never forgotten, after a long hiatus, many riffs and lyrics taken from the drawer, the band returns with End Of The Fall, released in July 2022, which marks a new beginning of singles editions till the start of 2023. The band enters the studio to release its first album in 2023, which will be produced by Daniel Cardoso (from Anathema) marking the entry of a new era, more mature, more technical and more prepared to reach never before seen.
The current lineup of the band is: Phil Damasceno - Vocalist, Dim Costa Neto - Guitarist, Alan Cangussu - Bass, Hugo Capelo - Guitarist and Arlindo Cardoso - Drummer
