  • Bio

    .. ............ ....The Ivory Chapel........ ..1. November 23.. 2. Her Silvery Vision.. 3. Memories.. 4. The Ivory Chapel.. 5. The Measure One's Worth.. 6. A Knight's Vengeance.. 7. Holy Light (The Return).. 8. Assault on the Kingdom.. 9. Spiritual Hallucinations.......... Featuring my photography, and a beautiful painting of a woman by artist Melinda Gramnaes. The Ivory Chapel was written in December 2006 and recorded throughout 2007. Then, it was recorded a couple more times in 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Currently, vocal recordings are taking place. Shrouded Destiny was written in 2005 (a demo version was produced) and re-recorded throughout 2006. "Shrouded Destiny" was released in May 2007..... .. .. ........ ....The Official Website.. - I'm not releasing the debut album at this time. If you would still like to get a copy, please contact me, and we can work it out............... .... ......Shrouded Destiny Reviews........ "Fans of prog in general should take notice of Rainwound despite its flaws stemming from musical immaturity since its creator will, in time, have the ability to create the next great prog metal opus." -Jordan Knoll, ultimatemetal.com.... "Though a tad long at just about 80 minutes, the CD contains some epic tracks that have a lot going for them, like "Christmas", with some majestic keyboard work and emotional guitar solos, "Rainwound", which mixes black metal and prog quite nicely, the Opeth-influenced "Companionship", and the lengthy 16 minute "Opressing the Past". The latter is part symphonic prog, and part technical metal, with complex guitar work, manic electronic drum programming, and varied styles of clean vocals. "Loves Sacrifice" is a rather nice piece, with lots of atmospheric keyboards, piano, and pastoral acoustic guitar work. 3/5" -Pete Pardo, seaoftranquility.org.... "“Shouded Destiny” is where dreamy Light Rock impacts headfirst with blistering blackened Thrash. It’s a remarkably varied album that would have slotted in well with The End Records before that label was taken over by Post-Rock shenanigans. The material has a lot of depth and is worth exploring, but it will probably take one a while to get into it... ...what RAINWOUND is doing is clearly on the cutting edge and groundbreaking... 7/10" - Keith Stevens, metal-observer.com...... ..............
