The Way of Purity

The Way of Purity

The Way of Purity is a death metal, deathcore and metalcore group. It presents itself as an anonymous project with no listed band members, no stated nationality and no public image based around individual personalities. The act is built around a fixed concept rather than a conventional band identity.

Concept and themes

The project frames its music around a message that treats God as nature, with animals and the perfection of their creation presented as central ideas. It links its purpose to inspiration, self-control and the correction of human error through the example of animal perfection. The group describes itself as a force bringing this message to people it sees as liars, weak individuals, prostitutes, drug addicts, nymphomaniacs and others.

Its imagery also draws on a dark spiritual contrast in which Christ and Satan, and good and evil, are presented as part of the same dimension. This idea is said to shape the music, which is described as emerging from nightmares, dreams and voices that call for change, salvation and “the way of purity”.

Style

The Way of Purity is tagged with deathcore, metalcore, melodic death metal and melodic deathcore, and is also identified as death metal, deathcore and metalcore. The project’s text places strong emphasis on violent, extreme and uncompromising themes rather than on conventional band promotion or personal detail.

Identity

The group explicitly rejects the usual trappings of band presentation, stating that it does not offer names, photos, an emblem, trendy influences or nationality. It describes itself as a message rather than an organisation, and as something that may appear as a “potential event” in an animal’s life.
