The story of Ancestral Spectre begins with a hardened funk bass player, about a year ago being drawn towards metal. Luke Fabian ( bass ) recruited lead guitarist Matt Randall. The pair learnt two covers Pantera- Domination and Slayer- Raining Blood. Then joined Matt Savini, an old school friend from the Burnt Oak days, the three formed the first incarnation of Ancestral Spectre, they were know as Massacre. The two covers were dropped because Matt S didn't have a double-bass pedal. Massacre troopered on and learnt Iron Maiden - Wrathchild and Metallica - Seek and Destroy. After various line-up changes (including a singer and two different second guitarists) a couple of practice venues, and a couple of gigs, and a name change...along came Steve Lawler, a mini hetfield in the making, who filled up the bands sound with a more heavy approach. As it stands Bassist/vocalist Luke Fabian is currently singing as best as he can. We now have some decent gigs under our belts and are getting new gigs lined up all the time.
The new recordings are currently in "production" and will be ready soon and we are constantly writing new material for performing.
Keep watching for new local gigs and thanks for checking out our myspace. Don't forget to also check out www.ancestralspectre.co.uk for more information and pictures!
