Here Comes the Kraken is a Mexican deathcore band from Aguascalientes, Ags., Mexico, formed in 2007. They have released two full-length studio albums, two extended plays, and one demo.
History
The band was formed in 2007 by Tore (lead guitar), Alex (guitar), and David (drums). They later recruited Alexa on bass and Deivis on drums. Their debut eponymous album (Here Comes The Kraken) was released in 2009, which was accompanied with an extensive tour in Mexico and Europe. They then followed this up with an EP entitled The Omen in 2010. Both of these releases shared a similar, very heavy death metal influenced sound.
