This month's featured band is the Danish/American constellation Pyramaze, a band that delivers melodic power metal. They are ready with their second album "Legend Of The Bone Carver", a great concept album telling a good tale about good and evil...

Pyramaze was formed by guitarist Michael Kammeyer in the winter 2001/2002, when he left his former band Damion. He soon got Morten Gade Sørensen, Niels Kvist, Jonah Weingarten and Lance King aboard. In 2004 the band released the debut album "Melancholy Beast" which received a lot of praise and got a lot of attention, both due to the music and of course due to Lance King delivering the vocals.

The band played some gigs around the world and soon got Toke Skjønneman aboard and was now a fiery unit ready to attack. During 2005 the album "Legend Of The Bone Carver" was recorded and that album is now unleashed upon us!
