Topic: Summoning (band)


  
  ::: Metal Vox - A Voz do Metal :::
Bands that spare presentations exist, this is the case of the Austrian group Summoning.
Unlike a normal band only we to have to be of the same oppionon that that is very easy cuase if anyone of use would ever bring a usical idea that the other does notlike it is totaly easy for us to use this idea for one of our other projects.
For a long time this song was not meant to be sung with choirs, but the more time passed and the clearer it got that this song is a catchy one we thought that a choir singing the tune of the flute would suit great to it.

 Summoning - Satan Stole My Teddybear
A mistake some might make with Summoning is to hear any of their more recent output, which is phenomenal in a very epic, somber and subtle sort of way.
Summoning's music wraps the listener in its haunting majesty, lulling the listener into its web-like trance with epic song structures and spidery melodies.
Summoning relies on carefully measured rhythms, keyboard and synth bases and to the point guitar lines to create this vast, immense sounding world of music.

Summoning already released its first demo tape when Abigor still was not formed.
I didn’t quit the band that time because I thought it was just an interlude and they would come back to the spirit and feeling fl metal stood once.
Summoning started as a fl metal band but as we didn’t wanted to have the same lyrical and musical concept as Abigor we changed a lot and built up our own identity.

 Worm Gear Zine
SUMMONING has evolved from a fairly straight forward Black Metal band on their first full length "Lugburz", into a band without peers in the Black Metal community.
SUMMONING's richly orchestrated and densely layered passages take their time to unfold and envelope the listener, and are as flawless as they are majestic.
And I think these individual inputs a band is based on are the main reasons for the vital progress and development of a band.

Summoning was formed somewhere in 1993 by Silenius (Michael Gregor), Protector (Richard Lederer) and Trifixion (Alexander Trondl) who met in the sort of pub, where they used to drink.
Before his activities in Summoning, Protector was playing drums in a kind of "old fashioned" thrash/death metal band "Marlignom", that nearly got a record deal at Peaceville, but in that time the band broke up.
Summoning made 2 demos ("Upon the Viking's stallion" and "Anno Mortiri Domini"), promo tape for Minas Morgul and one or two tape samplers with Pazuzu and Cromm.

The official Summoning page was merely a fanpage named to be the official since both members are either too occupied to make a website, or simply aren't educated in web design.
Summoning was formed in 1993 by Silenius (Michael Gregor), Protector (Richard Lederer) and Trifixion (Alexander Trondl).
The band was quick to release two demos ("Upon the Viking's Stallion" and "Anno Mortiri Domini"), but it wasn't until Silenius began singing for ABIGOR that he approached NAPALM RECORDS with SUMMONING material.

 Summoning Reviews at Lunar Hypnosis
Summoning is able to take the themes presented in LOTR and transfer them to music, present us with this image, and even though the median this was first presented as has changed drastically, show them to us perfectly.
Summoning is a band that I have known about for a long time now.
Those as yet unfamiliar with Summoning in general will perhaps be delighted to find that Summoning is an Austrian "fl metal" act who have devoted almost the entirety of their influence to the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.

 HORROR GARAGE: MINING MIDDLE EARTH: AN INTERVIEW WITH SUMMONING   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Summoning is a band that’s had little influence on the U.S. metal scene.
Silenius: Martin left the band a short time after the release of our debut album because in that time he was reforming Pungent Stench and was very busy with his other band project, Hollenthon.
The music of Summoning is creating a world full of fantasy creatures, but as we are not fantasy creatures but normal humans, it would surely not suit to the images we created in the minds of the fans to see some normal, mortal, sweating humans, with normal electric guitars in their hands, etc. X

 Summoning
Chronicles Of Chaos 10/10 (Dol Guldur) - I have basically worshipped this band since last year's amazing _Minas Morgul_, in which Protector and Silenius (who is also in Abigor) abandoned the raw fl metal of their debut and pioneered a unique, mesmerizing style of epic-ambient, flened-medieval-metallic music.
On songs like the awesome "Khazad Dum", Summoning build layer upon layer in consecutive steps, so that what begins as a simple series of notes is embellished, bit by bit, with distinct series of cool, imaginative tones, until there are five, six, seven separate layers to the sound, all woven splendidly together.
Still, the epic atmosphere that this band manages to create is quite an asset, although in the future it would probably be a good idea to add some more variety to its style.

On a funnier note if the Blood Summon comes with a fl torso and legs but the fleshy mace, shield, and head, the Blood Summon looks particularly femenine, though not to be sexist...

 Nocturnal Horde - All Reviews
Summoning is one of those very few fl metal bands I'll rave about.
And for a fl metal band, that's saying a lot for me. The simplistic epic sound of songs like 'Morthond', 'Ungoliath', 'Long Lost To Where No Pathway Goes', and 'Over Old Hills' is a sound that I love and have not been able to find another band with anything like it.
It shows that Summoning are definitely taking a step back and going back to their mid-period sound with touches of the new sound.

Summoning isn't a huge fan of keys, but you won't be blown away with a blasting bass sound as with 90% of the death metal out there.
This album is a very well produced attempt by Summoning to break away from their well established connection with Tolkien(the main reason I started listening to them), so if you're looking for something which is in tune with Middle-Earth, look elsewhere; this album is based upon the poetry of Robert Frost.
Summoning use repitition to create an atmosphere that sucks the listener into zones of vast mountains, foggy woods...

 Metal Coven Webzine - Metal Reviews - Twelfth Gate - Summoning
I've recently discovered an up and coming band from Chicago that performs a "Classic" style of Heavy Metal reminiscent of Sanctuary/Nevermore, and even a bit of early Fates Warning thrown in for good measure.
Their debut album "Summoning" has a slightly progressive feel to it, an intense marriage of the best elements of Thrash and Power Metal combined.
"Summoning" is a solid first effort that deserves to be supported by the Metal community.

If you're familiar with Summoning you know that they are very Tolkein/Lord of the Rings influenced, and if you're into that kind of music but don't know Summoning this is the perfect place to begin.
The last song is "Farewell" in which Summoning incorperate clean singing for the first time in the chorus and the result is great.
Summoning kicked out their drummer after their first cd and are now only two people.

This interview with Silenius and Protector of Summoning was done by e-mail by Carlos Martin Cuevas in January 2006.
Silenius: To be honest I don’t follow too much the Austrian metal scene, but of course there are some bands who made their way to the public like Dornenreich, Belphegor and some more.
I think a band of the own country is never so interessting for a person than a band from far away.

 Abigor Biography on DanceAge
Abigor is an Austrian fl metal band formed in 1993 by Peter Kubik (P.K.) and Thomas Tannenberger (T.T.).
After the release of several demos, original vocalist Tharen left the band and was replaced by Silenius, who recorded vocals for all Abigor releases until the recording of Channeling the Quintessence of Satan during which he opted to leave the band.
In late 1999, Tannenberger left the band for various reasons (ranging from personal problems to being fed up with what once was the "scene").

And the new bands, all together were pure shit and nothing worth, and of course do not exist any more.
It could have different individual meanings like to summon the very inner parts of your very self, a world beyond our world or a time long past, demons and gods etc. Silens, silentis means calm, silent and represents more or less my character.
The bands that survive a distance of ten or fifteen years can be counted on two hands.

 Summoning - Oath Bound Review - sputnikmusic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Blending epic landscapes, bombastic medieval percussion, and distant fl metal guitar riffs Summoning are truely in a league of their own.
The band also does some clean choir vocals at the end which are similar to those on "Farewell".
The song is 12:50 and is comprised of only four riffs, an example of Summonings simplistic and engaging genius when it cimes to song structure.

 Amazon.com: Nightshade Forest: Music: Summoning   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Emotions and themes run the gamut of Tolkein-esque situations: dark and dreamy sad soundscapes; ambient, melancholic wanderings (this is easily Summoning's most depressive and melancholic work); the crushing might of steel in medieval epic battles; and triumphant, majestic, yet staid and controlled revelry in the beauties of mythic forgotten realms.
It is easily the most pastoral of Summoning's releases so far, not having the sharp drops and heavier elements found in previous and subsequent releases, opting instead for an ambient pace with a muted and feathery (by our standards) tone and sound.
Despite the prevalence of keyboards, Summoning have NOTHING to do with all the gothic cheeze and pathetic...weak vampires and their keyboards that plague metal today.

Later on most of the bands went their own way and Summoning changed their style from primitive fl metal to slow-motion epic and orchestral metal, which is deeply connected to the realms of Tolkien.
Silenius: The music of Summoning activates the inner mind spheres of the listener which enables him or her, as it were, to travel through time to the ancient realms of Tolkien’s creation called Middle Earth.
The music is meant to be heard at home where you can create your fantasies to our music best, and is not meant to be performed on stage in front of a lot of drunk, head banging and shouting metal fans.

In the last time, most bands of the EBM sector transformed their music into techno orientated music with not much darkness in it.
Once the new Summoning CD will be released I will start thinking about any other released, but at the moment I can not say anything about it.
But now most bands added plenty of real drummers, guitars or techno rythms to their music (I don't have anything against guitars, real drummers or techno beats; but it is sad that there is not much alternative to it anymore).

 Summoning: Merchandising, mp3, themes...
Band comments: In contrary to many other bands Summoning always had not very much fan articles to offer; the only fans articles have been different kinds of printed cloths.
From the Lugburz release no merchandise had been done; the first long sleeve of Summoning was made with the “Minas Morgul” release, it was printed in America.
As far as the band knows, in this time also promo posters with the cover motive of “Dol Guldur” have been made which are now desired collectors items.

 BNR Metal Pages -- Summoning   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The Austrian band Summoning started as a trio in 1993, three young men coming together to play fl metal.
Black metal was certainly the order of the day on their debut Lugburz, but following the departure of their drummer, the remaining duo decided to forge a different sound.
Summoning is a fascinating band, one that fans of traditional fl metal as well as doom, gothic, and ambient metal should find appealing.

They have played in a great number of bands, and are currently active with such cult-phenomenae as Die Verbannten Kinder Eva's, Ice Ages, Kreuzweg Ost and ofcourse, their common band Summoning.
As soon as most of the bands made their way it broke up, because meanwhile the egos and visions of the protaginsts have become to different and since then everyone concentrated on his own work.
The first release of this band was a real killer one, but in contrary to the term "never change a winning team" Stefan T. changed everything and unfortunately became a klische bursting gothic metal band.
