    Artist description
    If you’re one of those who constantly search for true heavy metal force, you’ve found it. Conquest is here to fullfill your expectations and your most sophisticated metal senses. It strongly brings in mind good old times when metal was heavy metal, without unnecesar division into this or that, the times when metal was true rebellion, when metal was genuine force. Those tracks are the product of a sharp analytical mind and represents the totality of the life dynamic. The hypnotic voice and demonic power of their riffing and drumming system is something which is hard to describe, but something what is painfully precise in its brilliancy. Their music speaks within the universal language of metal symbolism. A sudden surge of fury and might surprises you occassionaly but most of the time they displays the particular authority and skill, built on fundamental talent. While the sharp sound invades the air freezing the blood inch by inch, you’ll be able to feel how proud you are to be the metal fan when bands as Conquest raging through the metal scene.

    Artist History
    Conquest is a Heavy metal band that sounds like the 80´s Heavy metal bands.In the year of 1986 the band Conquest was formed by Johnny Georgsson (guitar) and Bosse Georgsson (drums) . Micke sundqvist (Vocal/bass) joined the band. After a while Bosse left and Stefan Jansson (kingcover) took over the drums. Many gigs in the local area where made and, a two song demo "Bad Girls" was recorded in the beginning of 1990.In 1995 the band was put on ice due dissagreements of what kind of music Conquest should play and Johnny left and took the name with him. Late 97 Johnny and Daniel Ljung (bass) started the band again. with Thunaraz (guitar) a member of the black metal band Blot Mine (ex setherial memb.) Then Micke and Bosse joined again, Conquest was formed again.This far a second demo was recorded "Glory of Death" and Micke left again after that. he thought Conquest had become to heavy for him, He also had the Cover band :Kingcover, that plays old 70´s-80´s rock songs. And the band had no longer a vocalist, Conquest searched a long time for a new vocalist and found Grim , (ex drummer of the doom metal band Darklands), and saw that he fitted in just perfect in the band. But the trouble wasn´t over with that...Bosse didn´t have the time for Conquest and In the beginning of 98, a new drummer Jonas Brändstöm joined. Thunaraz didn´t have the time also, becouse he had Blot Mine and he writes the music for that band, so he left to, then a guitarist with the name Daniel Sahlin/Nilsson saw Conquest in their first gig for a long time in Pipeline/Sundsvall and he was interested to play with Conquest, Daniel asked the band if ihe could play with them, and during the summer of 98 Conquest was a full band once again.In oktober Conquest recorded their third demo "Dragonlord" With that demo they got some attantion of recordlabels, but nothing happend. The band had a couple of gigs in Sundsvall (music city of 99) one at a festival called "Gatufesten" with bands like LIONS SHARE (SWE). Conquest also did a support act for SAXON (ENG)in Sundsvall to mention a few band.The lyrics is written in English and the lyrical concept is about NordicMytholigy, Vikings, norse men and some fantasy.

    Press Reviews
    Allthough there was a small crowd, Conquest did a great gig as supportband for the legendary Saxon at the venue in Sundsvall. The 17 year old guitarist and the bassist impressed with strong backing vocals and poses to the great lead song, and fast guitar melodies. The crowd showed their interest between the songs and after Legions of metal that was dedicated to the fans the people got wild and crazy and Conquest showed real Metal spirit. Conquest plays great swedish melodic metal and is a band that has good potential and seems very promising for the future to come.
