  • Bio

    .. .................... ..The German based Melodic Metal-band Crystallion was founded in 2003 by bassist Stefan Gimpl and drummer Martin Herzinger to combine their musical passion with their interest in history..... ..Musicwise the band's bombastic Metal on their first two albums “A Dark Enchanted Crystal Night” and “Hattin” showed influences by bands like Rhapsody, Stratovarius, Helloween and Sonata Arctica. Powerful riffs and hooklines team up with finely crafted songwriting and brilliant melodies, but their most significant mark is singer Thomas Strübler's multi-octave voice which is breathtakingly dividing the band from their likes..... ..The first album "A Dark Enchanted Crystal Night" came out in 2006 and was well received by fans and media. Germany's Rock Hard gave 8/10 points and quoted: "From songs to production to the cover everything fits here. A very well done debut for a young and promising band!".... ..In May 2008 their second album "Hattin" - recorded at Helion Media Studios in Munich - was released on Dockyard 1 and the reception by fans and media was enthusiastic again. After a small release tour for the album in June 2008 and a number of gigs throughout Germany (and neighbouring Austria) guitarist Flo decided to leave the band by the end of what was to become the most successful year of the bands career until then. Since then the band has played with one guitar only, leaving more room for the creativity of keyboardist Manuel Schallinger and guitarist Patrick Juhasz..... ..On their new album “Hundred Days” Crystallion refines their style by adding a bit more Hard-Rock-oriented songwriting to their doublebass dominated melodic speed metal, complementing the band’s original trademarks with a slightly rougher edge. Concept-wise, the new album’s focus lies on the hundred days of Napoleon Bonaparte’s return from his first exile on the island of Elba. Back in power, he once more tries to conquer large parts of Europe until he is finally beaten in the Battle of Waterloo and sent into exile to the remote island of St. Helena in the Pacific Ocean. "Hundred Days" will see the light of day in October 2009. ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... ..Bannercode für deine Seite:.. .. .... .... .. ..Merchandise:.. ..Such dir einfach eine CD oder ein Shirt aus.
