Frozen Mist

A dark melodic fantasy metal project that will send chilling scars down your spine with haunting & beautiful vocals merged with wicked melodic music!

Dark Melodic Fantasy Metal = mixtures, elements & influences of gothic, black, doom, death, melodic, technical, speed, thrash, progressive, acoustic, and of course... fantasy. Frozen Mist started as a solo project in February 2004, because I felt a need to write music and to support the metal scene by utilizing a few PC programs to compose the music. It is an ongoing process. I write all original music and all original lyrics. Musically & lyrically, Frozen Mist is a genre of music that I classify as "Dark Melodic Fantasy Metal." Frozen Mist is influenced by bands such as Overkill, Serpentia, Orphanage and The Project Hate MCMXCIX just to name a few. A year later in the wintery beginnings of 2005, I've drastically changed my music styles bent on more of lush fantasy and beautiful horror environments from my mind onto pieces of paper and into the music that I write. Frozen Mist is the perfect balance of horror and beauty. A few internet collaborations from women online have helped out with vocals in the past which has given Frozen Mist that sort of "gothic" feel torwards the music with their swinging, yet beautiful operatic/soprano melodies. The Frozen Mist album entitled "Weeping Redolence" released right after Christmas 2005 has really turned some heads on quite a few people. The very first official review has been written by Matt Hensch and can be read over at his review site . The "Godforsaken" album released on August 19th, 2006 features front cover photomanipulation artwork done by Amanda Abram and matches exactly very well with the lyrics and music for this CD. The lyrical content behind "Godforsaken" is simply about desolation, isolation, complete hatred and infinite sadness. Matt Hensch's review for this CD can be viewed over . The "Sapphiric" CD was pretty much a rush job. I started work on this during the "Godforsaken" sessions because I have recieved new guitar samples in the summer of 2006 and really wanted to quickly experiment with them. My vocals, in my opinion, are not up to par with say the "Godforsaken" CD because I just want to get this "Sapphiric" album out of the way, hence its release in late October 2006. After the release of "Sapphiric," Jamie decided it was time to move forward with the band. So in November 2006, Walt Davis from Ditch Driven was asked to join Frozen Mist and play lead guitar for the band. During the winter months of 2006-2007, there has been several lineup changes with trying to find a permanent female vocalist. So finally in June 2007, Jamie puts out an advert banner on trying to find a "permanent" replacement in the Williamsport/Lycoming County area. With absolutely no luck from the banner, Jamie's last resort was to ask the haunting female soprano voice of Katarina Rose from the "Godforsaken" album to rejoin for the new CD, thus Frozen Mist is reborn!! The brand new work in progress album, solely entitled "Dark Seasons Of Sorrow" is a huge change musically. It will feature quite a bit of progressive and technical thrash with off-time signatures. We are also looking in to getting this album professionally mastered. Expect this CD to be released sometime in 2007.
