PANTOMMIND

In the early 90's in the town of Gabrovo (Bulgaria) was born a band called "Lavender Haze" featuring:Floyd Rossen (ex MONUMENT) - vocals / guitars Pete Christ (ex MONUMENT) - bass,keyboards Jiip Randam (ex MONUMENT) - guitars,keyboards Drago (ex DINAMICA) - drums & percussion Tony Ivan (ex ENERGY) - background vocalsIn this period the band creates some own compositions influenced by Queensryche and including many electronic motives. In 1995, the band packs four-songs demo called "Unreality". Soon, Floyd Rossen went abroad, which imposes some changes to be made, and accordingly Pete Christ picks up the guitar and records all of the tracks in the studio. Tony Ivan records all the vocals, and Dido is on the bass. Lack of funds squeezes the studio recordings time which reflects on the sound quality. Same lack restricts the whole live performances of the band in this period. At the end of this year, the band changes its name to PANTOMMIND. Unfortunately, because of some clouded "conceptual differences" some controversies arise between Tony and one of the main "engines" and founders of the band - Jiip Randam. After a pure impossibility for consensus and seizure of the situation, Randam leaves PANTOMMIND and soon because of similar reasons leaves bass-man Dido. After a long recovery, at the end of the 1997, some new material for a "conceptual album" is formed, and the band is back on track working on the songs for "Farewell".The new bass player is Dean The Boss(ex NOISE GATE). In the recordings takes part FloydRossen - who's back in Bulgaria. The demo-album "Farewell" includes ten progressive-metal songs and was finished finally at the end of 1999 with some help from Jiip Randam. In the year 2000, "Farewell" was presented live. In the followed concerts SunnyX ( ex-DINAMICA ) takes part as guest-keyboards. For a pretty short time he successfully re-arranges and learns the complicated keyboard lines made in studio. At the end he becomes a proud PANTOMMIND member. At the end of 2002, Floyd Rossen hits the road abroad again. In the meantime because of some domestic reasons leaves their fellow bass player DeanThe Boss. In the spring of 2003 the band creates four of it's best progressive songs made to this moment, which are the milestone and the beginning of the project called "Shade of Fate". In the same time, their previous bass player Dido joins back. As a secondary guitarist, adds forces Peter Vichew (ex TERMINAL EXISTENCE).NOW YOU MAY ORDER "SHADE OF FATE" CD FROM: www.lasercd.com-(`v)- Design your MySpace with MyLook -(`v)-
