about

Dark Forest was formed in 2002 by vocalist / guitarist Christian Horton and original bassist Dave Batham. The idea was to write and play Heavy Metal music as inspired by bands like Iron Maiden and Deep Purple. As the song writing progressed, more of the lyrical themes became based around folklore and legends and the name of Dark Forest seemed to fit the atmosphere.

By 2004 the band had released a three track demo called 'Succubus' and were playing as many gigs as possible. After a few line up changes they recorded two more demos by themselves in 2006, 'Fear Dearg' and 'Phantoms of the Sea'.

By the time they came to record the debut album, the band had played many important gigs including twice as support band to Cloven Hoof, who Christian now plays rhythm guitar for, and had found the line up for the album. James Lees on guitar, Adam Sidaway on drums and original bassist Dave Batham had been replaced by Bill Clough. Since then, Clough has been replaced on bass by Paul Thompson and the band continue to gig and constantly write new and better material.
