Theodicy (GER)
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Theodicy - founded 1998 - started with 2 guys making some metal music. They found some other guys, getting a "real band feeling", writing songs, playing live. They build up a little studio, started recording and the drummer left (he moved to a afr distant location) and the singer was a father-to-be. So the 2 guys stand there, a one song demo in there hands and no playable lineup. Additional they had to move away from the actual studio-location. So they build up the new studio, beneath work, time goes by, the singer returns, a drummer was found and the first time in band history - they got a 2nd guitar player. We're having 2007 - 9 years after founding - the band restarts. Digging out old songs, writing new ones... So in the space of 4 years they recorded the album "DIARY OF WAR" adding a new frame to the "traditional metal soundscape" by e.g. introducing machine-gun samples combined with the sound of a real bassdrum. "War sucks but it sounds great!"
