COMMUNIC
Progressive MetalNorway
COMMUNIC is a progressive-metal band formed in Kristiansand, Norway, in 2003.
COMMUNIC was formed in March of 2003 by ex-SCARIOT members Oddleif Stensland (guitars/vocals) and Tor Atle Andersen (drums). They were quickly joined by bassist Erik Mortensen, a former band member of Stensland's in INGERMANLAND and since 2004 COMMUNIC has been the primary concern of all members in the band.
By June 2004, the band signed a long term record deal with respected German company Nuclear Bast and embarked on the recording of their debut album, "Conspiracy of Mind", in Jacob Hansen Studios in Denmark. The resultant work was released to the world in February 2005 to mass critical acclaim and even received "album of the month" awards in a couple of major metal publications. A following European tour in support of the album strengthened their position as an exciting new Melodic Progressive Metal band and included a memorable performance at Germany's Rock Hard Festival.
In Early 2006 the band once again went to Denmark to work the Jacob Hansen and his studio to produce their second album, "Waves of Visual Decay", which has earned them a great deal of respect.
Now in 2008 the band has returned with their third album, "Payment of Existence."
COMMUNIC will please fans of Progressive Metal with their melodic, memorable but high energy songs, reminiscent of bands like PAGAN'S MIND, PATHOSRAY and SUSPYRE.
