Arcane Order
biography / portrait
 
The Arcane Order is the brainchild of guitarist Flemming C. Lund (Invocator, ex-Autumn Leaves). The history of The Arcane Order began as Scavenger in 2000 when Flemming C. Lund's previous band Autumn Leaves was moving closer to a permanent break-up. After Autumn Leaves split up in the summer of 2000, Flemming joined Invocator and at the same time started writing songs for The Arcane Order. However due to lack of time and the failing interest in music at that point of time, nothing much happened with the band during the first couple of years.


In 2003 Flemming however regained his interest in music and started writing a lot of new material and started to find fellow musicians. Other members found were Boris Tandrup on bass, who used to play with Flemming in Autumn Leaves - An excellect bassplayer. A drummer was found locally in the young, at that time, 20 year old talent Morten Løwe Sørensen. A wellknown Swedish singer, a personal favorite of Flemming's, was contacted and immediatly agreed to do the vocals.


In June 2004 the band entered Jacob Hansen Studios and recorded the instruments for the promo hoping to finish the vocalparts in Sweden shortly thereafter. However after having waited more than 7 months for the singer to finish the vocals, it was realized, that the coorperation had to end. Kasper Thomsen (Raunchy) who Flemming had known for years, was contacted, and Kasper was very interested in doing the vocals, and so in May 2005 the vocals were recorded and the promo was finally finished.


The promo helped the band get a lot of interest from various labels and finally the band signed with Metal Blade Records in September 2005 after which the band changed name from Scavenger to The Arcane Order. The Arcane Order will enter Hansen Studios with acclaimed producer Jacob Hansen in April 2006 to record their upcoming debut album, to be released Summer 2006.
