Madrid, Spain (1993 – present)

It was during the complicated crisis of the early ‘90s, in 1993, when Dark Moor was born under Enrik García’s hand, in Madrid, Spain.
In 1999, Dark Moor achieved its first contract. It was the right moment to record the first album of the band, “Shadowland”, thanks to the interest of Arise Records, which made them loyal to this label to launch their subsequent works.

The record got better results than expected, reaching the point of being editorialized in Central Europe and Brazil; this opened the doors to a memorable Spanish tour with Demons & Wizards.

In August 2000 the band recorded their formal international debut, “The Hall of the Olden Dreams”, and also started a faithful relationship with its producer Luigi Stefanini, who was behind most of their subsequent projects.

The next tour included with great success festivals like Viña Rock and Mijas Rock. The band received critical acclaim and also took part in the tribute album to Helloween, named “The Keepers of Jericho”. They recorded “Halloween”, a cover that brought the band respect and recognition from half of the world. This song would also be included in the EP “The Fall of Melniboné” for Spain.

In November 2001, Dark Moor recorded their third studio album, “The Gates of Oblivion, again under Stefanini’s command. The new creation meant another step in the growth of the group; it was edited in new countries like USA and Canada, and garnered a deal with JVC Multinational for the distribution of the album in the Asian market.

    Tarot is one of the best symphonic power metal abums I've ever heard. Perfect from start to finish; even the bonus track is great [2]

    I dislike most power metal because it's too generic. That's not the case with Dark Moor. I just rediscovered this band and I'm glad they didn't lose their magic!
