Biography

Helsingborg, Sweden (1998 – present)

Darkane (formerly known as Agretator) is a Melodic Death / Thrash Metal band formed in Helsingborg, Sweden in 1998. The name Darkane is a portmanteau of the words “dark” and “arcane”.

The first album featured Lawrence Mackory, who had a much more death metal influenced voice. After 1998’s Rusted Angel, Andreas Sydow was recruited, and handled vocals on the next three albums, Insanity, Expanding Senses, and Layers of Lies. He decided to leave the band in 2007 and Jens Broman (Construcdead, The Defaced) took his place.

The current lineup consists of Christofer Malmström (guitar], Peter Wildoer (drums), Klas Ideberg (guitar), Jörgen Löfberg (bass) and Jens Broman (vocals).

Currently they are writing new material for their fifth studio album, which is expected to be released in March 2008.

    I don't hear ANY melodeath influence and never have. Going through all their albums again though, I have to say, Demonic Art is actually their most solid effort.

    Wow, what the fuck is up with all the hate on this amazing band? Metalcore? HA! Not even close BelphegorPepe. Boring and weak....wonder what you have been smoking Dyum97? Well, seeing as their music has a shitload of thrash metal influence, I think the tag is justified. Even though I label them as melodic death metal.

    I want Andreas Sydow back. His voice sounded odd but at least unique imo. Secondary Effects just proves it.

    Congratulation to Peter for his audition with Dream Theater but honestly I'm happy they didn't choose him, even if he deserved it, that would have ment some changes into Darkane for sure
