Despondent Chants Biography

Despondent Chants was formed in the middle of 2002 by the brothers Carlos and Miguel Medina initially as a personal project, since at that time they had several songs written.

For a short period of time the songs were rehearsed but the difficulty of not having a clear idea of how the songs should sound like made them decided to include the support of Miguel Vergara, ex Slow Death on the bass and Adler Zevallos on the guitars.

This way several songs were completed, at the same time they were looking for a drummer and so they reached Emmerson Macedo in the early 2003. The band shows up for the first time in the middle of 2003 in a concert called “El lamento de los dioses” having very good response from the audience.

With this line up they began to work on the first songs that gave a shape to the first demo, recorded on 2004 titled Despondent Chants, which contains six tracks:

Whispers (Intro)
Forest of Burning Souls
Silent Fields
Through these Dreams
Forgotten Roses on my Grave
In the Arms of Death (outro)

Once the recording was done, Emmerson decides to leave the band for personal reasons being replaced by Harold Farfan few months later Adler Zevallos also leaves the band, Blake Apaza occupies his place in the band . With this new line up the band plays in different places of Peru obtaining good critics from the audience, fact that gives the band more confidence.

In march 2006 the band was invited to the Iquique Metal fest, but due to different problems the band was not able to show up in Chile. After this event Harold Farfan leaves the band, reason for the band to cancel many other presentations.

Many months passed without a drummer but then we could contact Yuri Mena, who for about seven months supported the band and a few presentations could be done. Due to personal problems and lack of time Yuri had to leave the band. The constant lack of a reliable drummer the situation made us make a drastic decision, Carlos (guitars), took the drummer's place and a new guitar player was called to join the band and Victor Irrarázabal takes Carlos' place in the guitars hoping to have a much more stable line-up in the band.

At the time these events were happening the band kept working and since august of 2007, after several months of rehearsals and song writing, we get in the studio to begin the recording of our second demo. with which a better sound quality and production are being achieved.

This new production will be released in December of the current year.
