Band History:
Arkhon was formed in Winter 2003 after a series of attempts,being one of the first extreme metal bands in the island of Cyprus,to emerge from the new generation of metalheads. Started of as a four-piece act but now moved to a standart five piece band,having a session-bassist for lives,the band is now able to deliver better on stage the complexity and emotion of certain songs.With a good number of gigs and concerts that have supported two major greek metal bands, Arkhon continue unstoppable to spread death/thrash with discortant melodies and vain demon poetry.
Your influences?
Influences varry for the main composing cores of the band. From melodic death metal,to progressive,to thrash and then to some brutal death metal. Nevertheless elements such as doom metal and black metal dont seem to be nonexistant here.
Favorite spot?
Any place with loud music,beer and cigaretes.
Equipment used:
Aria/Fender,Yamaha Guitars and Slammer Hammer Bass.
