COMMUNIC is a Norwegian metal band that was founded in March 2003 by guitarist/vocalist Oddleif Stensland and drummer Tor Atle Andersen (both ex-SCARIOT), who shortly after was joined by bass player Erik Mortensen, (a former bandmate of Oddleif's from INGERMANLAND). In April 2004, Oddleif Stensland quit Scariot to fully focus on COMMUNIC for the future. All focus of Oddleif and Tor Atle went into COMMUNIC. Conspiracy In Mind Finally, in July 2004, all the details were in place and the band had signed a long-term record deal with well-respected German label NUCLEAR BLAST. In September 2004 COMMUNIC spent 3 weeks in the Danish Jacob-Hansen-Studioswith producer Jacob Hansen to recording their debut album "Conspiracy In Mind, which was released February 21st 2005. The debut album received fantastic reviews around the world, and was a.o. voted "Album Of The Month" in Rock Hard and Heavy. Oddleif did tons of interviews for the album, and the response from both media and fans were amazing. COMMUNIC went on tour to promote the release of "Conspiracy In Mind" throughout Europe. A tour that went very well for the band, and garnered them a lot of new fans. As a result of the great critics on the album and their live-gigs, the band was asked to perform at various festivals, including the Rock Hard Festival in Germany - a gig that further established COMMUNIC as a name to remember. Waves Of Visual Decay In early 2006 the band once again went to Denmark for recording the new album together with producer Jacob Hansen. "Waves Of Visual Decay" is the album that will bring COMMUNIC yet another step up the ladder of success. 7 tracks of pure asskicking heavy metal, delivered with technical expertise and lots of power and aggression. Communic - now and the future The musical style of COMMUNIC is rich in both emotional depth and musical broadness and includes many elements from various metal genres. Catchy vocal melodies, thrilling bass and guitar lines. http://www.communic.org « hide
