SHROUD OF BEREAVEMENT plays Neo-Classical Death/Doom Metal,
with the use of violins, keyboards and females vocals. The
music deals with the issues of grief, loss, torment and
depression. SHROUD OF BEREAVEMENT was formed in 1996 by
Dan Robinson as a solo project. After spending five years
writing and recording various demos, Robinson met co- producer
Matthew Hajiads, who then introduced him to legendary writer/producer/engineer/violinist
Andy Happel of the band Thanks to Gravity. Robinson, then
enlisted Happel's talents as an engineer and a violinist.
Again, he was introduced to yet another legend, Hank Deckken
(Metal Blade artists, Nevada Beach), owner of Dizzyland
Recording Studios Rochester, N.H. There, Robinson spent
over 30 hours recording the first cut, A Rose for a Dying
Muse from the forth coming album. The song took an entire
year to compose...Rose was written for the death of Robinson's
best friend, Dave Theberdge, in 2000. Robinson shopped it
around in search of a live band. After enlisting the drummer,
Dan Clarke, of Seattle's own In Memorium, things started
to take shape. Now, with a full live band featuring Jenn
Judd of Autumn Tears on vocals, Julie Rousseau on keys,
David Starratt of Somber Blessings on bass , and Dan Robinson
on vocals and guitars and shrouds newest member Kelly Ann
Sullivan also on vocals. Together they form the six piece
metal dirge that is SHROUD OF BEREAVEMENT...
Most recently Robinson has finished recording Alone Beside
Her, the title track of the forthcoming album. This recording
includes Andy Happel on bass and violin, Jenn Judd on vocals
and Robinson on guitars and vocals. SHROUD OF BEREAVEMENT
has also appeared in the November 2003 issue of Metal Maniacs.
They have played several shows in the New England area and
have plans to play more. Show dates, mp3's and other information
are available on the official band web page.
