Nightingale (band)
Nightingale is a Swedish rock band from Örebro. History Nightingale began in 1995 as a solo project of Dan Swanö, designed to explore his brief fascination with more of a cleanly-sung rock style evident on Edge of Sanity tracks such as "Sacrificed". The first album '' The Breathing Shadow'' was recorded and mastered by Swanö alone in the space of a week at his home Unisound studio, and has been described by some as a tribute to goth rock band The Sisters of Mercy. The second album '' The Closing Chronicles'' was recorded in April 1996 with his brother Dag acting as producer and contributing some guitar parts. Unlike the first album, it is somewhat influenced by progressive rock and heavy metal, and continues the conceptual storyline that began in ''The Breathing Shadow'' to the logical conclusion of the central characters' death, as it was intended to be the last Nightingale album. After this the band went on semi-hiatus, playing a couple of live concerts in small venues ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
