| Biography |
GOATHEMY STORY BEGINS AT MIDDLE OF 90S WHEN GOATH STARTED HIS ONE-MAN-BAND AFTER YEARS AND YEARS PLAYING IN DIFFERENT DEATH METAL BANDS. ALWAYS (FROM THE LATE 80S WHEN VENOMS BLACK METAL BLOWED HIS MIND) ADDICTED TO HEAVY METAL AND THE DARK SIDE OF MAN, AS HIS FORMER ACTS NEVER TOOK THE LAST STEP HE WANTED, GOATH FINALLY FOUND WHAT HED LONGED FOR...GOATHEMY WAS BORN. AS A WORD, GOATHEMY MEANS REALLY NOTHING IN REAL LIFE. THE NAME CAME INTO REALITY 1993 WHEN GOATH USED IT AS AN ALTER EGO NAME IN A BAND CALLED THE GORE JOSEFS.
IN 1995 GOATH RECORDED REHEARSAL TAPE/DEMO CALLED "THE GOAT FUCKS THE LAMBS" INCLUDING RAW & PRIMITIVE BLACK METAL WITH FILTHY SYNTHS. LATER THAT (WELL...SOMEONE COULD SAY A CULT) TAPE TRAVELLED FROM HAND TO HAND AND IT WAS LISTENED TO WITH A HUGE ASTONISHMENT.
DURING 1995 - 2001 GOATHEMY SLEPT A DEEP BLACK SLEEP WHEN GOATH WORKED WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT WORKS AND PROJECTS LIKE "KAAMOS" (FINNISH ONE). IN FACT, BETWEEN 1995-1996 GOATH WROTE FOR KAAMOS EARLY VERSES OF SONGS LIKE "OPUS FUNERALE" AND "REBELLION MORNINGSTAR".
BUT NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. SOMETHING HAPPENED IN 2001 WHEN GOATH FOUND HIS WAY BACK "HOME". GOATHS BROTHER MR.THING JOINED THE HORDE AND THESE BROTHERS STARTED TO WRITE REALLY WEIRD MUSIC. THEIR BRILLIANT IDEA WAS TO MAKE DEVASTATING METAL VERSIONS OF OLD SONGS THAT THEY HEARD AT HOME WHEN THEY WERE CHILDREN.
A LITTLE AFTER THAT DARK WAS ALSO INVITED TO THE BAND TO MAKE CLEAN FEMALE VOCAL PARTS, WHICH ARE NOWADAYS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THEIR MUSIC. THAT FORMED ANOTHER PRINCIPLE OF GOATHEMY, THEY WONT USE ANY SYNTHS AT ALL WHEN A REAL SOUND IS AVAILABLE.THE FIRST DEMO NAMED "UNDER THE SIGN OF THE BLACK COVER" WAS RECORDED DURING 2002 AT GOATHEMYS HOME STUDIO "GOATHCAVE"WITH A DRUM MACHINE. GOATHEMY WAS LOOKING FOR A REAL DRUMMER AND SOON AFTER THESE RECORD SESSIONS THEY FOUND GHOST, WHO HAD PLAYED WITH GOATH IN KAAMOS. GHOST JOINED THE HORDE AND THE CURRENT LINE-UP WAS FORMED IN THE FALL OF 2002.
THE YEAR 2003 STARTED WITH SEVERAL PROBLEMS CONSIDERING A REHEARSAL ROOM, BUT IN THE MIDDLE OF 2003 GOATHEMY FINALLY GOT THEIR FIRST PERMANENT REHEARSAL ROOM AND STARTED SYSTEMATIC TRAINING IN THAT PLACE NEAR A DARK RIVER IN PERÄSEINÄJOKI. GOATHEMY PLAYED THEIR FIRST LIVE SHOW IN AUGUST 2003 IN LOCAL BOOZING PARTIES WITH A HUGE SUCCESS...
IN 2004 IT WAS TIME TO FORGET ALL THOSE COVER THINGS AND CONCENTRATE TO REAL THINGS. BARGOR JOINED THE BAND WITH HIS BASS-AXE AND NEW SONGS CAME OUT TO THE MOONLIGHT. THE VERY FIRST STUDIO RECORD WAS DONE AT FANTOM STUDIO AT SUMMER 2004, YEAR 666 LEAD THE BAND TO THE WHOLE NEW DIRECTION WITH A GREAT HONOUR FOR SCANDINAVIAN METAL. AT THE FALL OF THE YEAR GOATHEMY STARTED RECORDING FOR THEIR DEBUT ALBUM. GOATH AND MR.THING STARTED THEIR OWN LABEL "REBELLION BROTHERS RECORDS" SUPPOSED TO RELEASE THE DEBUT ALBUM.
IN 2005 BAND SPENT TIME IN THE STUDIO, RECORDING NEW MATERIAL FOR UPCOMING DEBUT FULL-LENGHT. SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH LABEL AND STUDIOS COLORIZED THAT YEAR. HOWEVER, ALBUM WAS FINALIZED AT THE SUMMER 2005 AT POP-ARTIKKELI STUDIO. B-XXX JOINED THE BAND AS A PERMANENT BASS PLAYER, SO THERE IS TWO BASSES IN THE BAND FOR NOW ON.
DEBUT ALBUM "FROSTLAND" WAS FINALLY PUBLISHED 25th JANUARY 2006.
