Led by a female singer perfectly at ease in such different registers as lyric, rock or thrash, SOULMAKER delivers a melodic and varied brand of metal. The band's songs are accessible to most, as they never take the extreme road. From the type of classical Heavy Metal the band were playing when they were first started, they only kept melodies, and prefer relying on efficiency rather than technical demonstration to build to-the-point songs, meant to be played on stage. On the live front, with about forty dates under their belt, SOULMAKER never cheats and delivers the goods in an energetic manner.
Biography
SOULMAKER was formed in 1999 by Salva (guitars), sam (bass) and Vivien (vocals). After undergoing several line-up changes, the band settles down in 2002 with the arrival of Nico (drums) and Seb (guitars) in its ranks. They adjusted their weapons playing Heavy Metal covers before deciding to take matters in their hands and write their own stuff. Despite a promising start and a few shows, Seb is forced to sit out due to professionnal reasons, and the whole band went on a hiatus for one year.
In the beginning 2004, SOULMAKER is once again a full unit and finds its rehearsal space. During this year, the band records a song for the Into a Heavy Circle compilation and sets their goal on self producing its first demo. In October, it is ready and the band launches its website to push its release.
In 2006, SOULMAKER is on a musical crossroad : while keeping the melodic aspects and French lyrics, the band sets for a broader style of Metal, taking elements from every subgenre to achieve its own identity. The demo release enables them to play about twenty shows and land opening spots with PSYKUP and EPICA. At the same time, the band joins the Myspace community and creates its own association, Le Chant Des Ombres.
In early 2007, the band splits up with Vivien for musical reasons. Marina is soon integrated in the formation and enables SOULMAKER to enjoy a new start. The band is finding its own strength and records Obsessions to show its new face.
