History.
The first album, "Possessed by Fire", moves on the same line of "Into the Dark Past" of the then label mates of Angel Dust, the second album "Rising from the Sea" is rather more obvious the influence of Slayer thanks to the voice of Paul Arakaki, similar to that of Tom Araya. Soon after this album the band broke up only to reform in the 2001 during the exhibition at Wacken Open Air. In 2009 Exumer released a one track demo called "Waking the Fire". Exumer released their third album "Fire & Damnation" in April 2012, followed four years later by their fourth album "The Raging Tides". Their fifth album, "Hostile Defiance", will be released on April 5, 2019.
