Darkwell

This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5Darkwell was born early 1999, with the aim and motivation to create alive and profound Gothic Metal. All the bandmembers are expirienced musicians. They know well how to inspire liveliness in their music, resulting in strong compositions and mature arrangements.1999 DARKWELL signed a record-deal with the austrian label Napalm Records, and in march 2000 they started the recordings of their debut Suspiria. They coupled fragile and though powerful female vocals with pounding guitarrs and pushing baselines. Shortly after entering the studio the five went on tour with labal-colleagues Tristania and The Sins of Thy Beloved. This tour was crowned with success: They got booked for the Wave Gothic Meeting even before releasing their first record, followed by many shows and a tour with Graveworm and Vintersorg.In the year of 2002 DARKWELL composed the MCD Conflict of Interest. Once again they united the already characteristic dark sound with the angelic and feminine voice of Alexandra P. The CD contains an expressive cover-version of Tanita Tikarams endless sad Twist in my Sobriety and sold far beyond all expected sales-figures. Based on this promising facts a co-headliner-tour with Ashes you leave, a headliner-tour across the Netherlands resulted, as well as Festivals gigs at Eurorock, Skeleton Bash and 666-Festival2003 DARKWELL seperated from their former singer Alexandra, as personal and musical difficulties occurred, and started to search for a new dark front-beauty. Soon they discovered Stephanie M., emphasising even more Darkwells independent musical path. Her expressive and powerful voice will from now on enlighten Darkwells past, present and future.After few rehersals Stephanie passed her glorious live-debut with the band at the Wave Gothic Meeting. She enchanted the audience with ther energetic live-show and bewitched everybody at the Summer Breeze 2003. Thenceforward it was clear: her sexappeal and hot-tempered show sets the stage on fire, and lights the audiences eyes and hearts. Shes like a fire-fairy dancing across a sea of oil suddenly everything is aflame.*(this is a fanpage)*
