Escalade [NEED GIGS]

About Me

Founded in 2004, playing thrash metal in the beginning, by Rene Link (guitar), Patrick Merkle (Drums), Nils Haegler (bass) and Marc Rusch (guitar), Escalade was looking for a singer for a long time. After a year they convinced Robin Dachtler (Now: Fear the Skyline, Guitar), to give it a try. 4-5 months later Nils Haegler and Robin Dachtler left Escalade because of a genre change. From now on Escalade makes heavy/power/melodic metal. In Oktober 2005 Felix Schuttack joins the band as the new lead singer. In spring 2006 the band was finally complete with Jonas Hald on the bass guitar. Escalade is now looking for a second guitarist because Rene Link left the band in december 2006. In late 2007 Patrick Merkle left the Band and it wasn't till spring 2008 that our new drummer Christian Junge showed up. The rehearsals started immediately and in autumn 2008 Escalade played their "first" gig. However, we are still looking for an second guitar : Skilled players near to our town are welcome to show us their talent!
Of course, that is only the story parents tell their little children... The real process of the founding of Escalade is much more complicated, reaching back in to the darkest of the dark ages of all the ages the earths face has ever seen. Read it, if you consider yourself strong enough...
*imagine some wind and thunder soundeffects here*
It was a cold winter 5 Billion years ago, when the last three of the great Lanthatos Warriors were on their final journey to the sacred mountains of Isotherma in the eternal desert of shards, feeling their impending death...
The house of Lanthatos had ruled and protected the Lands of Chrystal Light for millions of years. But times had changed and the forces of evil, namely the dark Prince Khrahranhghar from the doomed Lands of Darkest Darkness, had arose from their long lasting sleep. They had subjugated the World with a terrible reign. Men, women and even children lived as slaves in their once so splendid homelands. The wise elder Menarios sent his last three Warriors to seek for help beyond the Great Sea of Incredible Deepness...
The names of the Warriors were Ena, Dio and Treis. After they had walked for many years they finally reached the court of Heathenheath in the sacred mountains of Isotherma, ruled by King Scarlon.

The Three approaching Heathenheath


They were welcomed and led to the King were they tabled their plea: "Great King Scarlon, we are the last Warriors of Lanthatos send by Menarios the wise. Our lands are haunted by the forces of evil. Will thy army stand by our side to smash down our enemy? Will thy sword crush down the demons that enslave our women?". But the wise King Scarlon answered: "Lay down your weapons fools! The dark forces cannot be battred by swords or axes, not even by the Great Hammer of Incredible War which lies deep down in the Caves of Emerald Stone. The only way for you to finally be free again is to crush our enemy with PURE METAL!!!"
And so they did... Now, 5 Billion years later the successors of those brave Warriors are still in battle. Their only and most powerful weapon is their uber extreme METAL! They are...
