ShadowIcon

The ShadowIcon story has begun back in the year 2006 when a few friends (Tomaž, Bojan, Damir and Kristjan) had an idea to form a band. Each member was influenced by different musical styles so eventually we decided to play metal. It soon became evident that our style of metal isn't for just everyone. So in the first months of 2007 the line-up changed dramatically. All that was left of ShadowIcon were 2 guitar players - Tomaž and Bojan. But very soon Gašer filled in the rhythm section gap and so the first true ShadowIcon songs were written with just two guitars and drums. Band was in desperate search for a bass player, a keyboard player and vocalist. One thirsty winter evening (a party) destiny brought Bojan and Matej together. At that time Matej was a bass player who played in several bands but none of them resembled his wish - to play power metal. His wish then came true - he became the new Shadow member. The band went on, composing new material but something was still missing... In February Bojan and Matej went to a metal concert where Divine Illusion had that very missing link that ShadowIcon needed. Pero was recruited as a new keyboard player which gave band a new boost, fresh ideas and the desire to continue. ShadowIcon have finished recording all the music for their first full length debut album entitled "Empire in Ruins" in RSL the studio in October 2008 and May/June 2009. You can check the studio reports from the two blogs posted on this site. Unfortunately there were some major band frictions just as the band was finishing their recording in May 2009 which eventually led to Gašer leaving the band and ShadowIcon re-recording all the drums for the “Empire in Ruins” album in June 2009. Currently the band is rehearsing the songs with a new drummer and the new vocalist. Once everyone will feel comfortable in the band we will announce who they are publicly. Until then - stay tuned and - as always - STAY SHADOW!
