"The band at first drew my attention for their excellent guitar work and especially the intensity of their vocals.

IMHA TARIKAT are a German black metal band with an old school approach based on the Norwegian second wave combined with melodic Swedish influences from the direction of DISSECTION. Other ingredients of their dark brew include vicious speed parts in the vein of US-stalwards MIDNIGHT, a dash of punk, and even a pinch of occult rock from the likes of THE DEVIL'S BLOOD. Their densely woven string-tapestries allow some distant comparison with compatriots such as THE SPIRIT and possibly DER WEG EINER FREIHEIT, but IMHA TARIKAT clearly chose a more directly raw and fierce form of expression, which is driven by pure gut instinct and burning emotion .
The sound created by musical mastermind Ruhsuz Cellât is infused with high voltage intensity and a constant outburst of inner pressure that also shows in his relentless full-throttled style of vocals. The extroverted fronter is violently unleashing all his passion into IMHA TARIKAT . His boundless ambition and utter dedication becomes audible in the fast and steady progression of his songwriting from the first EP "Kenoboros" (2017) and the following demo "Son Mistisizm" (2018) to the 2019 debut-full length "Kara Ihlas".
