Christofer Malmström - guitar
Wildoer/Malmström has written all of the music and
lyrics. Darkane plays very technical death metal
influenced by heavy metal, especially the twin guitar
attack. The songs have an enormous tempo and there is
a lot of variation in every song. Peter impresses
alot behind his drums, he is very hard to beat on
drums and he is one of Sweden's best drummers.
Lawrence is doing a good job too, he shifts between
ordinary vocals and death metal vocals through every
song. The band is not afraid to use more unusual
things like a string section and a big choir to make
the music sound fuller and to add some strength to it.
They have put eleven tracks on the album and on the
re-released album there’s also two bonus live tracks
included which were taken from a gig at the rock club
The Tivoli in their hometown of Helsingborg. Both of
the songs are also on the album as a studio version,
the songs are "Wisdoms Breed" and "Convicted".
