Encryption

When the members of black metal band Sereneless decided to head separate ways in 1998, LacrimaS (keyboards) didnt feel like putting his musical endeavours to an end. This is when the idea to create dark instrumental music started to find its way to his mind. LacrimaS started out with a Mortiis-like project, called Trollrath, which was inspired by Tolkiens Lord of the Rings. After having purchased some new sound equipment and after some experience with programming, however, certain compositions no longer fit with Trollraths concept and atmosphere. Therefore, LacrimaS decided to bring a new project to life, with its own sound and story (taking place in the 16th and 18th century, based on historical facts): Encryption. A full length demo was recorded in LacrimaS own little home-studio (2001). Quality was far from poor and positive reactions came floating by. A silent era then followed, but LacrimaS inspiration and motivation got a big boost because of some very positive reactions and ideas from certain people (thanks Jan Yrlund!). In November 2002, Lady Clarisse (ex-Black Tears & Avatar) joined Encryption, giving it all more mystery and character. Shortly thereafter, Encryption was offered a contract by Waerloga Records and the debut Secrecy was cast unto the world. There could be no better label to support this act, since Waerloga focuses ONLY on Medieval and Fantasy-related atmospheric music, and they are very true to their cause. The outcome was a fantastic cooperation, which will hopefully be continued for many releases yet! After the first live gig in May 2004, Lady Satine (ex-Gracefallen) was charmed to add her vocal capacities and she soon became the newest Encryption member. Along with her, the newly written songs were poured into the second and soon to be released album Nosferamor and some old songs were vividly transferred onto a DVD.The music of Encryption will especially appeal to those who occasionally enjoy classical compositions which draw a certain dark gothic curtain around them (put out the light, light a few candles and enjoy the music ).This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile Editor
