Biography

Band history

Back in 1987, Torbjörn Weinesjö, Thomas Weinesjö and Anders Olofsson decided to start the band that was going to be Veni Domine in 1989.

Glorify
The band “Glorify” was formed, yet without a singer and a formed vision of the sound. Fredrik Ohlsson came in late 1987 through contacts as he was moving to town. After a brief meeting Fredrik was a member, because the band really needed a singer and he seemed to be a nice guy he was accepted without a rehearsal! The band was blown away first time Fredrik opened his mouth, never did they expect this quality. Fredrik at that time being very hi-pitched and powerful in the vein of Rob Halford and Terry H. The band now started to rehearse for their first gig and for a demo. As things turned out the band felt in need of a change on the base side, so without having a replacement they let their old time friend Anders go and the quest for a replacement was on. Already playing quite heavy music the task to find a base player was not easy. Magnus Thorman however joined the band in 1987 just in time for the first real demo effort in a studio down south in Sweden, the three songs recorded was “Stranger”, “Always in time” and “don’t be wasted forever” mixing this was Mick Nordström ( Modest Attraction, Leviticus) also Mick did the second demo recorded in Sollentuna with the songs, “Face of the prosecutor”, “The king is crowned” and “The saviuor”.

    Old Candlemass + Old Queensrÿche in a SLOW version = Veni Domine. Am I Right?¿?

    Veni Domine is like Geoff Tate in an Epic Doom/Heavy Metal band singing about Biblical themes and Christianity... Bizarre! But the music is fucking great!!!

    I'd be very interested to read how Veni Domine is not Doom.

    At least they're enjoyable and catchy, unlike other Christian Doom bands like Place of Skulls.

    nothing special and nothing with doom.I think 'cos what doom can be without extreme vox ;P but I like his vocals - something between Heloween,Iron Maiden and Stratovarius)))Anyway,I'm glad to see them among christians bands!

    How comes isn't that bad? It's great. Veni Domine are a very good band. I am extremely pleased with the vocals and the keyboards are a nice touch. You don't come across Christian prog/doom metal bands any day

    Great band! Too bad the production and fadeouts on 23:59 aren't very good... :(
