Биография "Arcane Grail"
<< Вернуться к списку всех песен "Arcane Grail"
The Sense of the Order’s title consists in the aspiration to some mysterious ideal, which is de rigueur on a Way of search of Spiritual Perfection. The acquisition of Grail grants the divine force and wisdom. Mythological image of Grail itself is connected with a bowl, in which the blood of Jesus Christ was assembled after his crucifixion. The Order has no christian orientation, but We are Knights of New Era of Aquarius.
Assembled by aryerarch Demether Grail, the Order has a stable war-corps of six musicians now: singers, hexastringer, quadristringer, drummer and pianist. The Order tourneys basically with domestic bands, but there was one joint performance with Pungent Stench, Graveworm, Keep of Kalessin.

Arcane Grail — российская музыкальная группа, играющая в смешанном стиле симфоник-блэк-метал/мелодик-дэт-метал. Основана в Москве, в декабре 2001-го года вокалистом Деметром.
Дебютный альбом «Mysteries of the Ancient Charnel», вышедший в августе 2006-го года на московском независимом лейбле Musica Production, был записан на известной московской звукозаписывающей студии «ДАЙ-Рекордз» звукорежиссёром Евгением Виноградовым (альбомы Catharsis, Butterfly Temple, Bonie Nem, Forgive-Me-Not, Pagan Reign).
Стиль музыки Arcane Grail характеризуется эклектичным слиянием sympho black metal, melodic death metal и doom metal со всеми разновидностями мужских и женских вокалов в рок- и классической музыке.
Альбом «Mysteries of the Ancient Charnel» лирически концептуален, тексты связаны общей легендой о пробудившемся в начале XVII века в горах немецкой земли Шварцвальд готском короле Германрихе (268-378), придуманной вокалистом Деметром.
Второй альбом «Arya Marga — Ninefold Path to the Innocence» был выпущен 1 мая 2009 года на лейбле Musica Production. В апреле 2010-го года альбом бы выпушен в ифровом формате на английском лейбле Hunter’s Moon Records и доступен на ITunes, Code 7, Amazon, Bandcamp.
Группа Arcane Grail известна своими красочными концертными представлениями в рок-клубах Москвы и России.
В июне 2010-го года Натали стала вокалисткой немецкой symphonic gothic metal группы Coronatus.
В январе-феврале 2011 года группа провела Baltic Tour по Эстонии, Латвии, Литве и Польше с эстонской melodic death metal группой Ceremonial Perfection и санкт-петербуржской epic metal группой Trelleborg.
Текущий состав (Line-up):
Demether (Skylord; ex- Chaos Alter) — vocals (2001-)
