Forged in the spring of 2006 from the ashes of Pimpin Joe, Spanglephish and Odin.
Dissatisfied with modern music in general Guitarists Joseph Forrest and Kieron Sidlow, with drummer Martin Fitzharris (ex pimpin joe) set about trying to write the kind of music that they wanted to listen to, but few were making.
Long time friend and superb bassist Peter Hewitt (ex Spanglephish) joined the project quite early on. With a solid rhythm section they now felt confident that they could write music that was both technically interesting and melodically strong.
Right from the beginning the music began to take on it's own sound. Finding the right vocalist for this project was very difficult. Having a sound already that was grounded in classic melodic metal and thrash and speed metal purely by chance close friend recommended a vocalist from another band. After watching this bands first gig and being very impressed Joe invited Will Farrell (ex Odin) to come and write with us on a song that we had recently made a demo of. Right away it was apparent that Will was exactly the kind of vocalist that would uniquely suit this project.
Hey there hows it going? Just letting you know that Ichor will be playing their first warm-up gig at the Dog & Partridge on June 4th & would love to see you there. Hope you can make it, take it easy, duffer
