Biography
Les Ténèbres (pronounced /le tenebr/) was created in the summer of '07 by Gustav Jørgen Pedersen. The project was to play crushing doom metal in the vein of My Dying Bride, Ahab and The Fall of Every Season. The project developed and in the autumn of '07 Herman Otterlei joined in on bass, Johannes Radøy on guitar and Niklas Østergaard on drums. The summer of '08 saw the leave of Niklas Østergaard, but a few months later Frank Nordeng Røe filled his place. During the year a lot of new material had been written, thus the band entered Toproom Studio to record their debut EP …And The Waves Came Crushing Down. In december Nicholas Nystad joined in on guitar to contribute both live and on forthcoming recordings. The music has developed and draws influence upon more progressive, rock and various classical elements than before, but still the main influence is melodic doom metal.
