About Me |
|
Planet Rain was started sometime around 1997 by Pär Sving (ex-Necrocide). At that time the project didn’t have a name and it was a one man band. The writing process continued and in 2002 rehearsals began with drummer Tommy Holmer (ex-Necrocide, Rimthurs, Undivine). By 2004 the first self-titled demo, containing 5 original tracks and 2 covers, was recorded and released under the name of Zweihander. In the spring/summer of 2006 guitarist Johan Sjöblom (ex-Well of Tears, ex-DiiMinores) and bass player Jimmy Mattsson (ex-AutumnMoon) joined the band. In October that same year, 3 songs for a second demo ("Departure") was recorded in MHM studios in Gävle and the band also changed their name to Planet Rain. During the beginning 2007 the band released a re-recorded version of "Departure" (re-named "Re-parture") and started planning on a new demo. Some gigs followed but most of the year was spent recording material for "Fracture" (at various locations and occations). The new demo was finally released in October. Shorty after Johan decided to leave the band to focus on other things. A replacement was found in Bosse Öhman (In my Embrace). 2008 will hopefully bring a full length release and lots of more gigs! So it truly has begun... Departure 2007 |
