MINAS TIRITH [progmetal][musicrequest]

Progressive Metal • Norway


Norwegian outfit MINAS TIRITH was founded in 1989 by Frode Forsmo (bass), Stian Kraboel (guitar) and Tony Kirkemo (drums). Never a high profile act, the trio has toiled on with their own artistic goals in sight rather than the aim of achieving commercial success.

Their select fan base was treated to the demos "Tower of Doom" in 1990 and "While I Hold the Devil's hand" the following year, and 1993 saw the band release their first official production, the self-released mini-CD "Mythology".

Norwegian label Voices of Wonder saw the potential in the act, and included them on a progressive metal sampler in 1995, and the following year they released their full length debut CD "The Art of Becoming".

Next in line for this outfit was a deal with metal specialist label Facefront Records, who issued the CDs "Demons Are Forever" in 1999; and their third full length production "Dissertatio Prophetae" in August 2004.

Apart from these releases, the highlight of the band's career seems to be a support slot for Norwegian act Mayhem, whose guitarist Blasphemer is an outspoken fan.
