About
|
No Dawn hails from Steinkjer, in the middle parts of Norway. Formed back in 2002, as a thrash metal project.
The band started out playing coversongs of bands like In Flames and At the Gates.
As time went by, self-written material came to life, and a somewhat unique sound emerged.
Many changes in line-up has been made, a total of 5 members have been replaced.
The biggest change occured in september 2006, as founding member Steinar Forfang left the band.
Andreas Bruheim filled Steinars position, and is today the main songwriter.
Also, Tor Egil Solberg left in february 2007,
without a successor appointed, and the band continued as a four-piece deathmetal band pursuing a much different sound.
In november 2007 Paal Andrè Sandnesmo rejoined the band, filling the position Tor Egil left.
The band sounds quite different today opposed to the beginning, going from extreme thrash to being a more brutal and technical death metal act.
The band has more and more frequently entered the stage and has recently won the Norwegian leg of Wacken Metal Battle and will play the prestigous
Wacken Metal Battle at the 2010 edition of Wacken Open Air. Also a new EP is underway, so lots is going on in the No Dawn camp these days!
