Biografie

Where light gleams, there it breeds shadows, one life grows another wilts. Many sides inherent every creation and only her eternal grace may judge either to bloom or to rot. We take place as henchman on the dusky side of the only true deity. Driven by searing Misanthropy, gifted with the pain of certitude.

Unbound somewhere in the musical aether between black metal and tragedy, lyricaly an anthology of saturnine tales of love, death, nature and the human squalor.

Founded in early 1998 as "Mantichora" the music was heavy influenced by different gothic metal acts. Soon the first demo: A gothic fairytale was recorded. Frequent line up changes and quarrel within the band summoned a split up in April 2001. Until now, no replacement was found for the former members, Leif and Norrath. Due to the miss of bass and drums the band now is in a very experimental state, but I hope it is only a matter of time until the Line up is complete again to be unleashed on mankind.

At the moment, the first full length album: "From Grace to Tragedy" is in work. It contains 13 tracks, the play time will aproximately be 70 minutes. Yet there lies much in wait to be discovered in the groves, and for shure I will soon put some demo tracks on the page.

Simmering energies are awaiting their awakening
