Hailing from NYC, Gothic Knights was formed in 1990 by guitarist John Tzantis with the intention of crafting some of the finest heavy metal around. After gaining label interest from their 1994 demo "To Hell and Back", the band released its 1996 self-titled debut and 1999 Kingdom of the Knights CDs on Sentinel Steel Records. In 2003, the band released its 3rd CD “Up from the Ashes” on Limb Music further establishing them as a force and endearing presence in the world’s heavy metal scene. Over the years, the band has played countless shows, opening for national acts, and participating at several US festivals.
Since their last release, the band has not only written a great deal of material but has also focused its energies on developing a top notch digital recording studio. It was decided that bringing the majority of the recording and production process in house would help Gothic Knights obtain a unique advantage especially with all the ongoing changes in the music industry. As of today, the band and has already recorded the drums for the next CD and half of the following CD. The band is now recording the remaining instruments and vocals for their next official CD titled "Reflections from the Other Side", which is to be released in 2009.
Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving. It's been almost 2 years since I've spent it away from my Family in Kuwait. I now have the chance to spend it with them. Please don't forget my fellow Troops who have to spend it away from their Families, God bless.

Been back from Kuwait & I'm flying to Germany tomorrow. Gonna be there for a 1 month vacation. I used to be stationed there from 98-2001. While stationed there I made a lot of European Friends. I can't wait to visit them. Can't also wait to go to alot of Heavy Metal clubs and concerts.I have nothing but Love for the Europeans because they treat the word "Friendship" as if it started with a capital "F." I have Friends mainly in Germany & Holland. I've been to Holland and made Friends there as well. The best years of my Life were in Europe. I hope I meet the Heavy Metal Warrior Princess of my Dreams in Europe. Anyway take care
