Frontiers Records Sign SAINT DEAMON; Audio Samples, Video Available Frontiers Records has announced the signing of melodic metallers
SAINT DEAMON, for the release of their debut album, In Shadows Lost From The Brave, on January 25th, 2008.
This Swedish/Norwegian band, named after a fictive ghost rider called S. Deamon, was formed in 2006 by drummer Ronny Milianowicz after a 7 year long successful era with Swedish/German melodic metal band
DIONYSUS.
He re-joined forces with
Dionysus bass player Nobby Noberg, which Ronny describes as, "the best bass player in the business", along with guitar virtuoso Toya Johansson, which Ronny knew back from their studying days together at the University Of Music, in Örebro Sweden.
The band scanned the whole internet to find a singer that would do their magnificent music justice and in the spring of 2008, they finally found Norwegian Jan Thore Grefstad, most known for his impressive singing in Norwegian power metallers
HIGHLAND GLORY and for being the singer in
TNT guitarist
Ronnie Le Tekro's second band
WILD WILLY'S GANG, a position he took over after
Jorn Lande.
The Saint Deamon line up was then complete and started to work on the debut album, under the guidance of the high acclaimed monster producer Jens Bogren, best known for his excellent work with
SYMPHONY X, HAMMERFALL, OPETH, KATATONIA and Dionysus.
The musical idea of Saint Deamon is to mix four very talented musicians dream and ideas and come up with a unique form of music that varies from apocalyptic riffing and shredding to visions of historical musical landscapes, from Gregorian hymns to the sophisticated aggression of the Saint Deamon stylish trademark of metal.
For those who haven't heard about Saint Deamon and their members, think again, this band has an armada of song writing credits.
Ronny Milianowicz has been co-writing metal anthem singles like
"Seven Seals", "Fighting The Darkness" with
Primal Fear, "Red Light" with Cans as well as some classic hymns for
Dionysus; Toya have been co-writing immortal songs for
Sinner and
Ride The Sky and in 2006 together with
Joacim Cans (
Hammerfall),
Uli Kusch (

Ralf Sheepers (

Edu Falaschi (
Angra),
Timo Kotipelto (
