In September of 1997 Dennis Klink on the keys, Thomas Reeß
on the drums, Robby Beyer at the vocals, Florian Spannagel and Michael
Zieschang on the guitars wrote the original kind of Black Metal on their
banner and formed up the basis of "Karkadan". But the first creative
activities of the band were taken up at the beginning of December. The
line-up of this time was replenished by replacing Michael Zieschang on
the guitar with Daniel Pütz and Felix Moosmann joining the band on the
bass guitar. In seeking its own style the music of "Karkadan" developed
to a very varied mix of the dark types of Metal. The result is a
symbiosis between hard Heavy Metal and extreme Black and Death Metal vocals.
Because of no better description the followed direction was called
"Black Heavy Metal". Only three months after its foundation the band did its
very successful live debut. The very positive reactions were the reason
for the decision to present the written material to the public.!
In December of 1999 the debut album called "Eternal black
reflections", which was first thought to be a simple demo record, was finished. It
was recorded and produced at the Maranis Studios by Vagelis Maranis
(Sanvoisen). After the recordings Florian Spannagel left the band for
musical reasons and Thomas Reeß for health reasons. Thomas Reeß was
replaced by Marcel Frano on the drums for a short period. After numerous
changes on the instruments the band has found a new line up which has a good
future. After D.P. left the band aside the only left founding member
R.B. (voc) is now completed by P.C. on guitars, J.K. on guitars, C.G. on
bass guitar and M.D. on drums. The band has won more and more fans
playing various gigs which were always acoustical and optical impressing
events.
