1)The story of Slumber began in early 2002 when Siavosh Bigonah, Ehsan Kalantar and Jari Lindholm sat down one day to write some music. There were no intentions of forming a band, it was just to ventilate some ideas and play some music with each other. The result of that session was the song “Labyrinth”. We all felt that we connected very well. We met a couple of weeks later and composed “A Wanderer’s Star”. At that point our little project turned serious and Slumber was officially born as a “band”.

When we had enough material for our first demo, we contacted an old friend of ours named Ted Larsson to do the drums. We recorded the demo in June 2002. It was a hellish week filled with problems in the studio and all kinds of other backtracks, hellish but very interesting since we were totally in love with the music that was now starting to find its right shape. The demo got its final touch through mastering at Criteria Mastering by Plec.

After the demo was finished, Slumber was in grave need of more members since merely four people weren’t enough for the vast arrangements of the songs. We got in touch with a few more friends, Daniel Albertsson, Mikael Brunkvist and Daniel Beckman. For about a year we kept writing music, played some gigs and worked on the Slumber concept. June 2003, the demo “Seclusion” was recorded in our own Chaos Practice Studios. After a few weeks of trying to mix the demo, we realized that we needed a couple of fresh ears to do the work. So we turned to Plec once again, this time he was assigned to do the mixing as well as the mastering.

    "Fear not, comrade owl, Jari Lindholm is coming with his solo album some time soon, the mixing is set for May 15th, you can hear from his samples that what he's going to do is exactly what Slumber was." - Yeah, those soundclick samples sound very promising. I hope there won't be any delays with the project. Need it a.s.a.p.

    Saw them live a month ago in Romania: Slumber, then Atoma.. There's no comparison between them. Slumber sounds great live, I've been very impressed , but Atoma scared me, haha, the vocalist from Atoma (the keyboardist) isn't that good, actually he sucks live. It's a shame that they stopped Slumber.

    так-то ничего выдающегося...понравился только трек Where Nothing Was Left, остальное выглядит старательным копированием Katatonia, Tiamat и Tristania

    Atoma is great, but it's too bad they stopped Slumber. This was some excellent stuff.
