Mayadome

Lengthy songs with some complex arrangements forced Mayadome, a Swedish rock group, in to the eye of the general public in Oct 1996 when Shrapnel Information released the group’s debut album, Paranormal Activity. The group’s music relatively echoed the traditional intensifying metal noises of Dream Theatre, but proceeded to go in a fresh direction. The effectiveness of the group originated from guitarist Fredrik Kjörling, who was simply outstanding on crunching the riffs; from Erik Grandin (bass), who excelled in excitement; and from drummer Teddy Möller, regarded as by some to become one of the better in his field. Möller also performed bass plus some keyboards, and was previously using the Hidden, G.A.M., and F.K.U. For his or her debut recording, Mayadome included Jonas Hägg on keyboards and Björn Holmquist on vocals. Holmquist’s vocals experienced a Swedish highlight that was not used to many followers, as well as the group all together created a good melody with some very nice complexity held as well as acoustics. For his or her sophomore recording, Near Life Encounter, released by Siegen Information in Apr of 2000, Sebastian Okupski changed Hägg on keyboards and Bassel Elharbiti changed Holmquist on vocals. This record carried Mayadome in to the leading band of intensifying metal, making use of their disposition shifts and solid rhythmic base. By November 2001, difficulty brewed for the group as distinctions, both personal and contractual, resulted in its disbanding. Three from the associates, Kjörling, Grandin, and Möller, after that joined up with with Alvaro Romero Torres (drums) and Niklas Kupper (electric guitar and bass) to create Loch Vostok.
