Myring



Description : Dark Heavy Metal



Brief History :
Myring was founded in early autumn '97 when Skred(voc) and Sargonnas(gtr) met in helsinki when Satyricon had a gig there and they united their strength to create a band. First they planned that Sargonnas should join the band in which Skred was then, Tuonela, but they realized that the music they make should be and will be a lot different.

It must fight against christianity and respect elder beliefs and values of life. So they started to make much darker metal under the name of Myring, which means 'a corpse, that is interred in marshland'. Other members they seek for a while and finally they found Leka(bass), Demonica(keyb) and Vidar(dru).

During the winter '97-'98 they rehearsed with great fury and when year '98 begun, they had few songs ready for publish, so they made a rehearsal tape/Promotape in which they took 298 copies. They found a rehearsal place in the basement of University of Technology of Tampere. Their first live performance was in the first of April 1998 in Mexas, Tampere.

Currently we are building our own rehearsal place and continue finishing new songs to our next project, a MCD or professional Demotape
