Biography

Scariot is a metal band from Kristiansand, Norway. The band was started by Daniel Olaisen (Blood Red Throne, Cobolt 60) in 1997. He was at that time the live guitarist for Norwegian legends Satyricon, but wanted his very own band.

Scariot is a mixed bag of metal styles. Their first album, Deathforlorn, combined prog-metal clean vocals with low, clear death metal growls. Their 2nd album dropped the clean vocals for the most part, while their third, Strange to Numbers dropped most of the growling. The second album, Toungeless God was never officially released, the band however, published 300 copies independently. Their fourth album, Momentum Shift, was released in February 2007.

There has been a lot of different members in the band, and the only one still remaining from the start of the band is Daniel Olaisen. Because of this the band’s style has changed a lot from album to album. At the moment the band is considered to be a studio band, because all the members are involved in different bands as well. Today the style of the band can be described as progressive power metal, and are often compared to Nevermore.

    Today, after so many years I finally got my hands on the Momentum Shift CD, which is my most favourite album of all time. A day of joy...

    Ok maybe not completely. Scariot is the heir to Control Denied.

    The frontman is far from terrible. If u want terrible check out Watchtower's first record.....:S lol and Mustaine is awesome but he'd never fit in with this band.

    How can you "not get" how people tolerate bad vocals with great music when your top artist is Megadeth?
