Biography
1. Progressive symphonic metal band from Spain
ARWEN began in the middle of 1996 from an idea of JOSE A. GARRIDO (guitar) and LUISMA HERNANDEZ (bass) with the intention of reflect in their music a melodic metal with progressive and aggressive dyes.
In 1997 NACHO RUIZ joins the band as guitarist and vocalist, later he decicated only to the vocals. In this period, a mixture of ideas from the three composers gave its fruit and there appears songs of the current setlist with certain Celtic influence. MAMEN CASTANO became another incorporation, since the group needed the support of a female voice for sweeter and softer tones.
NACHO ARRIAGA’s incorporation (drums), ROSALVA ALONSO (keyboards) and ALBERTO AVILES (guitar) carried out throughout 1999. The same year the band recorded the demo “At The End…” with the one that performed several concerts sharing stage with bands as DEF CON DOS or SEGURIDAD SOCIAL giving place to, during 2000, be part in several contests like Villa De Madrid.
After this facts, during these two years, the band considers a professional career in music. This new mentality takes them, due to their passion for the spectacle and the live show, to the incorporation of an eights member, who finally would be JONATHAN ZAPATERO (keyboards), becoming a group of a powerful live and without sampled parts: This fact is the reason of Arwen’s line-up with eight members.

Their Myspace said they were preparing a new album. Alright, they said that in October '08, so it might still be a while, but still, a new release would be AWESOME, I love this band.

They *need* to get out a new album. Illusions is one of the best power metal releases ever, and that's saying a lot.

What a great live they did last september with Axxis in Madrid. I really love their music, and the fact that they use 8 musicians so they don´t use any pre-recorded music in their live shows.
