BIOGRAPHY
When Nothing Remains is a Swedish Doom/Death Metal band containing members from bands like Nox Aurea, The Cold Existence, Rimfrost, Draconian, Doom: VS.
The idea of When Nothing Remains was born in late 2010 when Jan Sallander from "Nox Aurea" "The Cold Existence" and Peter Laustsen "Rimfrost, Nox aurea, The Cold Existence" wanted to create something very dark and emotional. In beginning 2011 Jonas Toxen was added for the drum duties and Johan Ericson "Draconian, Doom VS, Shadowgarden" to handle the clean vocals, mixing and mastering.
After writing music together in The Cold Existence for many years they wanted to try something new, darker and more experimental from ideas they both have for years. The result turned out to be very good after a couple of songs and they felt that this is something they really want to do.
Peter Laustsen felt that after his work with Nox Aurea he wanted to add something extra to this style of music and invited a couple of guest artists to patificate with clean vocals duties on some of the tracks. Johan Ericson was an obvius choice as Peter know him for years and he have very interessting ideas and feelings for this style of music.
In middle 2011 first album “As All Torn Asunder” was recorded in Massive Assault studios and mixed/mastered in Dead Dog Farm studios with producer Johan Ericson (Draconian, Doom:VS, Shadowgarden) to get the perfect sound and feeling for the music. Release is sheduled for spring 2012 on Solitude Productions. As for Nox Aurea they once again used mastermind Zoltan Horvath to paint the artwork.
First album As All Torn Asunder was released March 2012 on Russian label Solitude Productions. The debut album of the project founded by members of famous Swedish band Nox Aurea featuring clean vocals by Johan Ericson (Draconian, Doom:VS and Shadowgarden). «As All Torn Asunder» is 70 minutes of refined melodic doom death metal carefully composed by professional musicians who put their souls into every part of this masterpiece from arrangements to powerful sound. This album is the best present to fans of modern doom death metal in the vein of Nox Aurea and Ablaze In Hatred, as well as to fans of Swallow The Sun and Draconian!
Second album Thy Dark Serenity was released June 2013 on Russian Label Solitude Productions. The second album highly anticipated by fans of the Swedish group and melodic doom death metal in general! Johan Ericson (permanent member of Draconian and Doom:VS) is again responsible for vocals, and, in addition, has performed mixing and mastering of the album. Perfect sound appeared as a perfect framing to the precious stone, beautiful music of When Nothing Remains. Musicians follow the ideas of the debut album and offer to the fans the same memorable doom death, melodic, stirringly touching and infinitely elegant. For those who are not familiar with the band this album may appear as a real discovery, while those who are already inspired by their music «Thy Dark Serenity» will become another blissful touch to the soul and the heart.
The band currently is working on a new album.
