-Born of Darkness-
In the Pacific Northwest, under the skies of endless grey and rain, Inpathos came to be…
Inpathos are a melodic death metal band hailing from Bellingham, WA in the Pacific Northwest. Officially formed in 2018, they have released two full length albums (‘Divinity’ in 2020 and ‘March Towards a Blackened Sun’ in 2021), along with an EP titled ‘Ascension’ in 2023, and they are currently in the studio working on their third full length album with a release set for 2025.
Consisting of brothers Adonis and Nabil Reed-Boulos (guitars, drums), Patrick Bradford (vocals), and Brendan Brendible (bass), Inpathos draw from many diverse styles and genres to create their own unique flavor or melodeath. From the frigid riffs of classic Scandinavian death metal to rhythms inspired by the Boulos brothers’ Lebanese heritage, Inpathos have carved out a sonic identity that can’t be mistaken.
Inpathos is set to hit the road in the fall of 2025. With the release of their upcoming album on the horizon, Inpathos are ready to bring the scene a new take on melodeath that will leave a lasting impression.

The Music
Our debut release Divinity began as a collection of songs written by Adonis. They were a very raw expression of personal struggles, and thus a very raw overall tone was adopted for all aspects of the album. After beginning to work with Jordan, Anthony, Nabil and Benjamin Crabill to execute the actual recording of the material, each of them brought their own unique style to the music. Nabil and Anthony spruced up the original drum tracks, Jordan made several adjustments to lyrics and flow of vocal sections, and Benjamin Crabill lent his own unique style to bring the clean vocals to life in the tracks "Divinity" and "Vanity." The track Winter Lantern was a truly collaborative writing effort with the intro riffs inspiring the rest of the song being written by Nabil, the drums and clean outro the work of Anthony, and Jordan taking complete creative control of the vocal structure. The end result is an album that is raw, passionate, and which planted the roots from which we would begin to grow as a group.
After the release of Divinity, in the early stages of writing for a follow up album, Gungnir was written and recorded by Anthony and Jordan. The energetic track was released as a standalone single a few months after the release of Divinity and offered a great taste of what was to come...
Fast forward several months further, and the COVID-19 related travel-restrictions were still in full swing with the ongoing pandemic. With three members living in Washington (state) in the U.S. and one living in Vancouver, BC just across the border in Canada, this yet again posed a challenge as we were preparing to record the newly written and material for our follow up album. With no end to the pandemic in sight, we decided to record remotely this time around as well.
For us, the best part of March Towards a Blackened Sun was that it was a truly collaborative effort. Each of the four existing members played a role in the writing of their parts for the tracks, in contributing song ideas, brainstorming titles, track sequencing, lyrical and musical themes, etc. We were writing as a band. The final product is the result of many hours spent on group calls, weeks of tireless work, and months of diligent writing. It is a snapshot of who we are as a band right now, and we are beyond proud of it.
ALL ABOUT THAT BASS
The end of 2021 brought an exciting change for Inpathos: a bassist! We found ourselves beyond lucky to add the musical prowess of Brendan Brendible to our lineup in December. With his joining Inpathos is now fully armed and operational, and we can’t wait to have him contribute the sick bass grooves on the next album.
PASSING OF THE TORCH…
Or rather the mic… though it may become a torch in the hands of our new vocalist Patrick Bradford. Jordan departed the band in late 2022 to pursue some exciting opportunities, and shortly after we were lucky enough to have Patrick step in to unleash sonic hellfire on the mic. Patrick joins us at the opportune moment as we are preparing to release a new EP and begin writing on our third LP, both of which will feature him on vocal duties.
Looking to the Future...
With the full brunt of the pandemic lockdowns behind us, we are ready to move onward and upward. We are thrilled to have live music back in full force and to be playing regularly, and we already have big ideas for upcoming music that will push our limits as a band, help us break through our ceilings and grow as musicians, and ultimately connect with metalheads and music-lovers everywhere!
