Formed in early 2024 in Ho Chi Minh City, Final Heaven is a modern metal band built on the foundation of guitarist Nguyễn Trí Nguyên’s solo endeavor, Egangz. Initially a one-man project, Egangz released two standalone singles that drew attention not only for their technical skill but also for their raw emotional intensity. These early tracks acted as a catalyst, drawing in like-minded musicians and giving birth to what would become Final Heaven.
From the outset, the band moved with remarkable speed — writing, rehearsing, and evolving while undergoing several lineup changes. Despite the rapid pace and early shifts in personnel, the band found stability and strength in its current lineup. With Nguyen Keen taking on vocal duties and Cerrin Hendricks joining on bass guitar, Final Heaven solidified into a cohesive creative unit.

Final Heaven’s sound draws from the broad spectrum of modern metal, incorporating elements from metalcore, progressive metal, and post-hardcore, while injecting their own sense of melody and aggression. Rather than following trends, the band carves a unique sonic identity, balancing technical riffing and breakdowns with atmospheric layers and emotive vocal work.
Their music speaks to personal struggle, emotional resilience, and the existential weight of modern life, delivered with both intensity and introspection. Drawing influence from international acts in the metalcore and progressive scenes, Final Heaven aims not only to contribute to the Vietnamese metal movement but to build bridges with global listeners through shared emotion and sound.
As the band looks forward, their goal is to establish a firm presence in the international metalcore circuit, releasing new music that pushes boundaries while staying true to the emotional core that defines their sound. With more recordings and shows planned throughout the year, Final Heaven is poised to become one of the country’s most promising modern metal exports.
In a scene that’s growing more diverse and daring by the day, Final Heaven stands as a fresh voice — one that’s as ambitious as it is emotionally grounded.
